Batch Scheduling Software

[lucknowm]

Does anybody knows of a good Unix job scheduling freeware ?

Basically, I am looking for following capabilities :

a. define a job
b. define command line arguments
c. define output file, error file etc.
d. manage files ( remove old files )
e. inform when a job fails


thanks

Well, you could write a script that does all that and schedule it through cron.

Well it can be done. But once you have a plethora of jobs, writing a different script will be time-consuming.

This is the reason I am looking for a freeware which does all this.
