To have scripts executed periodically you can use cron which is described in depth here: https://www.unix.com/answers-frequent...n-crontab.html

When you got the PID you can hand it over to kill with the command xargs for example. Best write your script so that it is able to accept parameters like [start|stop|restart], ie. check $1 with a case/esac statement. This will make it more versatile.
