WARNING: do NOT add Cron tasks using the Crontab -e command via SSH. Your entries will be overwritten.

All Magento stores require a basic set of cron jobs to be set. Each cron job is a task executed according to a schedule. Additional cron tasks may be added as needed.

Create a Cron Task

To create a new Cron task:

Go to Cron > Schedule in the Webscale STRATUS sidebar menu.

Click + Add New Cron. * Label — Enter a name for the cron task for your use. * Enabled — Select “Yes” to set the taks to active or “No” for inactive. * Command — Enter the shell command to run at regular intervals. Be sure to use full paths to binaries and other files.

E.g., to run “mytask.php,” the command might look like /usr/bin/php /srv/mytask.php. * Common Cron Settings — Select one of the common interval settings or “Custom” to allow manual entry of interval values. For help in creating manual interval settings, see Crontab Guru .
