14.10 Removing the
Crontab File
The operations group has been given a user name ops. They do not want to
start from scratch for scheduling jobs. Instead, they just want to reschedule
the time of run for the jobs that the application deployment people run. The
application deployment group has actually saved up a backup copy of their
crontab file as shown in Figure 122:
Figure 122: A Saved Copy of the crontab File
The operations people are given access to this deploy.schedule file. They
can then create their crontab file using the crontab
file command as shown in Figure 123:

After that, they will use the crontab -e command to edit the time to schedule the command to be run at a different time.
