SYNOPSIS

       lr_cron period store

DESCRIPTION

       lr_cron is designed to be called in a crontab(5) entry.  period should
       be "hourly", "daily", "weekly", "monthly" or "yearly".  store should be
       the full path name of the DLF Store.

       lire(1) should be used to configure periodical jobs in the store.

       To run jobs as scheduled by lire(1), you will need to setup cron jobs.
       For each schedule you use, you should configure a cron job to be
       executed according to that period.

       Here is a crontab(5) entry that will make sure that all possible
       schedules are supported in the /home/flacoste/myStore DLF store:

        05  *  *  *  * lr_run lr_cron hourly  /home/flacoste/myStore
        15 01  *  *  * lr_run lr_cron daily   /home/flacoste/myStore
