Hi:

With HP-UX you must write something like:

* 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22 * * * monitor.sh

See the manpages for 'crontab(1)'.

Regards!

>* */2 * * * /monitoring script/

Unfortunately this works for Linux, not HP-UX.

Hello

For HPUX, you need to add each 2s for your command as the following 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22

so, the command it may likes
* 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20,22 * * * xx.sh

Regrads,
Zohair
