Cron Entry

Hi folks,
I have got the following cron entry ...

Code:
08 30 * * * /mp1/scripts/test.sh > /mp1/scripts/test_logs.txt 2>&1

The problem is that instead of generating a new test_logs.txt file every time it keeps on appending the outputs to the test_logs.txt file. What is it that I am doing wrong here?
