Weekend Schedules
* In Plain English
Schedules that run only on Saturday and Sunday.
* Scheduling Guide
Weekend schedules target Saturday (day 6) and Sunday (day 0 or 7, depending on the cron implementation) to run jobs that are too resource-intensive or disruptive for weekday operation. Database reindexing, full system backups, and batch analytics reprocessing are common weekend tasks because they have hours of low-traffic time to complete without affecting business operations. The expression 0 2 * * 6,0 runs at 2 AM on Saturday and Sunday; 0 0 * * 6 runs only on Saturday. One common gotcha: some cron implementations treat Sunday as day 0, others as day 7 — both 0 2 * * 0 and 0 2 * * 7 represent Sunday in most Unix cron implementations, but always test against your specific scheduler to confirm.
