Hi, a new question about crontab.
I have some machine in cluster to avoid interuption in manufacturing process. When one is alive the other one is sleep.
Some time happens to switch between them. So i stop the crontab in one and start it in other one. The question is how can i ensure that the two cron are the same? I made a shell to check the difference in the two /var/spool/cron/crontabs directory and it work fine. When an alarm arrive i manualy align the user crontab file in the sleeping machine using crontab -e. My boss ask to me to do this action automaticaly. Do u think that is correct to align the crontab using the remote copy of the users crontab file? I'm not sure, for instance if i make the user crontab using the vi the shell doesn't start. For the same reason i prefer align the crontab manualy beaside with a shell that make a rcp. That's is correct or do u think that i could be use the rcp between the /var/spool/cron/crontabs files?

Best Regards,
Andrea.
