Cron jobs

This is the documentation for the deprecated product VMmanager 5. It is no longer updated and may be irrelevant. Documentation for the current version of VMmanager can be found in the VMmanager 6 section.

VMmanager Cloud runs many periodic operations using different cron jobs. Cron is a daemon that runs a job that is to be executed at a specified time.

The following cron jobs are created when you install the control panel:

*/5 * * * * /usr/local/mgr5/sbin/cron-core sbin/mgrctl -m core sysinfostat - collects statistics on server resources consumption for the Dashboard page.
