Open Source BSD Cron and Job Scheduler Software - Page 2

ServLoader would be useful when you have a number of services and you want to monitor, control their activity. Also it is possible to install/uninstall/manage your own services.

SisyphusScan is a wrapper to malware scanners that can be used for cyclic scanning of files (i.e. accross several executions). The scanning process is optimized with a cache. Currently supports the clamd daemon from the ClamAV tools suite.

Parse and convert various TWS objects (e.g., jobs, job streams, etc) that are dumped to files using composer command and convert them to various output formats.

WebBackup is a PHP backup system that you can do backup of files and mysql databases and send to another server by FTP. You just need to create a schedule with the parameters.

"alefa" is a command line utility that allows to control the launch and execution of other programs. "alefa" means "run", "go", "launch" or "execute" in malagasy language. It is often useful to write (more or less) simple scripts to rerun some commands until they "succeed", or to launch other commands indefinitely. There are numerous common use cases. Such things should be easily automated so that we can do other tasks without being distracted and without having to restart such frustrating commands ourselves by hand: without creating scripts! "alefa" fixes that. I decided to create it a day that I was tired of creating, modifying and adapting such scripts to make yet simple and routine tasks. "alefa" returns command or application's last ExitCode, so you could do something depending of the result.

This perl program monitors the the cron daemon events. You are able to find out how much time where needed between the planned and the real execution of the job. Missing jobs can be found also. It currently runs under Linux.

The giServer is an easy-to-use integration server for process automation and event-driven or scheduled execution of batch jobs. Instead of using complex XML configuration files an elaborate GUI for batch job management is included. Some possible usage scenarios are: - Automatic processing of incoming data files - Big Data applications - Process automation - Data Mining/Aggregation applications - Automatic Reporting - Processing and analysis of database records

HopiCron is a php-cron deamon for cheap webhosting packages that don't support cron jobs. It works by http-querying itself (fsockopen). HopiCron works with Apache and probably other webservers. No database is needed since hopiCron uses crontab files

A task scheduler written in java, supporting outlook style recurrence patterns.

Provides a system where users can submit URLs that will be scheduled for download.

Designed to automate tasks by scheduling scripts to run at set intervals - the scripts to run can be local or remote and can be on a secure directory where a username/password access is required. Requires PHP and MySQL on the local server/web hosting account. phpJobScheduler is a replacement for cron jobs.

rc.stupid a Linux daemon that: - repeatedly runs a start script at system startup until this script exits with zero status - regulary runs a check script - runs a stop script at system shutdown Why ? Because startup systems like systemd and upstart are sometimes hard to tune in many situations, like MySQL data directory on a networked filesystem. As rc.stupid does nothing other as running scripts (or anything that may be executed) you may find other use cases like simple clustering.

A simple task scheduler

Start COMMAND, and kill it if still running after DURATION. Based on GNU timeout from coreutils. Ported to Perl so it is available also for other Unix systems. Was tested on Linux and FreeBSD.

Execute scheduled commands without assuming that the machine runs permanently. vdcron is a cron, but it's light and does not require specific software or libraries. It can be triggered by root and standard accounts

xjobs has a command line interface similar to xargs to start processes, but runs processes in parallel and provides enhanced concepts for I/O redirection.

Daemon to react on database events with external commands
