Hello there, I have just installed vicidial and using it for press 1 campaigns without agent, usage time 10AM to 6PM. Now the complex where I have setup my system, there are frequent power cuts mostly at night. So I want to schedule shutdown at 8 PM or something, but there are many cronjobs running at midnight, please assist how to reschedule them, i.e mostly between 7PM-8PM.

Vicibox v.9.0.2 200415-1712 iso installation
Asterisk 13.38.2-vici
OpenSuse Lead 15.1

This should help. https://crontab.guru/

Also, upgrade leap 15.1 to 15.2. There's an article on my blog

Thank you, upgraded to 15.2, it was confusing to do for 15.3 don't understand where to put 15.3 instead of 15.2.

Also, will try to reschedule cronjobs, won't there be any issues if I reschedule them? Do i need to take some special consideration for it?

Thanks

yea 15.2 runs better than 15.3 in my opinion anyways, and rescheduling will be fine. they are just set that way because most the US is not dialing at those times

Hello @carpenox. I did as you told, made shutdown time 21:00 and other tasks between 7PM-9PM. Seems like it's working fine. Thanks you so much for assistance.

Sometimes the maintenance jobs takes longer than expected. Setup an automated email that be sent after the cron task finishes, it will confirm you if all tasks are complete before the shutdown time.
