RE: how to schedule a job every alternate sundays in unix cron
what a freekin nightmare!
Not really.
Is today Sunday? :
`date '+\%a'` = 'Sun'
if it is, check this also ('and'):
-a
Is this an odd or even day?
eg. daynum mod 2
((`date '+\%U'` % 2)) -eq 0
One possible downfall of this is if the current Sunday is the 30th,
and the next day is Monday the 31st.
Then the following Sunday is the 6th, and then two Sundays
in a row will run.

RE: how to schedule a job every alternate sundays in unix cron
cough Ah, no...no downfall on 28/30/31 day month thingy. Do a man page
on date, in the see also section it say to look at strftime, doing a man
page on strftime you will see that the %U format is defined as:
%UWeek number of year as a decimal number [00,53], with
Sunday as the first day of week 1.
So this will run it on Sundays for the even weeks of the year. Not
perfect because of the 53 week year cycle, but hey, the advice was free.

Re: how to schedule a job every alternate sundays in unix cron
I'm not a Unix expert, but one thing you could do is schedule the script to run every Sunday, then within the script add some logic so that the script completes every other Sunday. For example, in ksh: # Check to see if this script ran last Sunday. if [[ -a ran_last_week.dat ]]; then rm ran_last_week.dat exit else # Create a file to signal that the script ran. touch ran_last_week.dat rest of script Jay [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/16/03 09:09AM Hello All, OS: Solaris 2.8 I have to run a backup script in every alternate Sunday.
