The command "/10 * ${command_to_execute}" is a cron job command that schedules a task or command to be executed automatically at regular intervals.
Breaking down the command:
-
The string "*/10" in the first field represents the minutes. It means the command will be executed every 10 minutes.
-
The next five fields (*) indicate that the command will run every hour, every day of the month, every month, and every day of the week. Essentially, it specifies no restriction on these time parameters.
-
"${command_to_execute}" refers to a placeholder variable that should be replaced with the actual command that needs to be executed.
When this command is set up as a cron job, the specified command (represented by ${command_to_execute}) will be automatically executed every 10 minutes.
