Crontab for backups - Entries not running
Trying to configure a cron-based daily backup for a vCMP guest, running v13.1.1. As root, using crontab -e, I've added the following lines:
27 8 * * * /usr/bin/tmsh save sys ucs config1.ucs ...

Solution Information: The jobs were running, but not at specified times. The root cause was that the guest had not been restarted since the time zone was set, and cron was using the previous time zone. See K14113 for the details on how to restart the cron daemon.

Yeah if that backup.sh file is located in /root/ then it should be working... I see you had it set to run at 1:06pm, are you in central time?
