What is the difference between "At minute 0": 0 * * * * and "Every 60 minute": 0/60 * * * *

Are these two represent the same schedule? I need to start job at the beginning of every hour and have found both in different sources, this is confusing

CodePudding user response：

They are the same. If you divide 0 to 60 you will get 0. And the canonical records which will work in UNIX and linux is:

0 * * * * command

because many (if not all) Unix OS do not understand records like something/other in cron
