In the Administrator's Guide it states custom schedules can be set to "Run on the first Monday of each month at 09:00" and has the example of 0 9 1-7 * 1. This does not work.
FreeBSD Crontab cannot be configured to run on a schedule such as the "2nd Tuesday of each month".
The FreeBSD CRON that the KACE appliance is using does not support this functionality.
Per Cron - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron
While normally the job is executed when the time/date specification fields all match the current time and date, there is one exception: if both "day of month" (field 3) and "day of week" (field 5) are restricted (not "*"), then one or both must match the current day.
An example is if it is Monday OR days 1 - 7, or if it is Monday AND 1 - 7 then the Crontab will run.
There is not a current workaround for this issue. The other examples listed in the Administrator's Guide are valid:
