which one is better Run by Cron or Shell
Dear Experts,
I have a script defined in Cron which runs every 1 minute. Code:
* * * * * /export/home/myscript.sh >/dev/null 2>&1 But after 1 minute cron will invoke another instance(process) execute the myscript. In that case do you think there is a probability to overlapping the instance and may create problem. If there is a chance for overlapping may be the below shellscript(run it in background) is okay which will run every 1 minute. Script will invoke different instant after every minute. Code:
#!/usr/bin/bash
while :
do
sleep 60 & pid=$!
/export/home/myscript.sh
wait $pid
done
