How do I know if a CRON job ran / schedule a script?
I have a Bash script to remove old files from a backup share on my NAS. So far, so good.
I scheduled it via CRON ... I think. I'm trying to check a log to make sure it ran, and there are no issues, but I am not sure how to do this. General guides on Linux on how to do this don't turn up the proper log file on my NAS.
Can someone offer guidance on how to check for a CRON log on ReadyNAS OS 6? Or specifics on how to schedule a Script using another method?
Thank you!
Download you NAS system Log, open it and check cron.log

... I completely forgot the Logs download existed.
That did it. Thank you!
