Totally agree, daily and every 2 minutes is a bit much!

Surprised it runs every 2 minutes too, is that really needed?

Nice, but why echo "2min"? Seems unnecessary.

I think the timing is off, should check the timezone.

I’m pretty sure the command to check the cron logs was `tail -f /var/log/cron`, but I’m not completely confident about the service status command.

I feel like I’ve seen a similar question before, where we had to set multiple cron jobs for the same user. I hope I remember the correct format!

I remember we practiced setting up cron jobs, but I’m not sure if I got the timing syntax right for the daily job.

I think the cron job for every 2 minutes should be fine, but I’m a bit confused about how to check if it’s running correctly.

I'm a bit confused by all the different systems involved. I'll need to map out the data flows and integration points to figure out the best place for the system of record.
