The simple scheduler builds on the crontab scheduler, but provides a simple set of presets instead of the full bloated crontab syntax.
Can be configured at /admin/config/system/cron/scheduler/simple
Run cron every: The preset to use as cron rule. This option can be overridden per job.
The presets available are:
| Rule | Preset name |
|---|---|
| * * * * * | Every minute |
| */15+@ * * * * | Every 15 minutes |
| */30+@ * * * * | Every half hour |
| 0+@ * * * * | Every hour |
| 0+@ */3 * * * | Every 3rd hour |
| 0+@ */6 * * * | Every 6th hour |
| 0+@ */12 * * * | Every 12th hour |
| 0+@ 0 * * * | Every day |
| 0+@ 0 * * 0 | Every week |
The simple scheduler has a hardcoded catch up of 300 seconds. If you need to configure this, you should use the crontab scheduler instead.
