CronOpsSRE
重要ポイント
- Human-readable cron descriptions reduce handover mistakes.
- Always attach timezone and owner context alongside the expression.
Handover checklist
Record raw cron, parsed sentence, timezone, and execution owner in one place.
For critical jobs, include the expected next run timestamp in both UTC and local time.
Change review practice
When cron changes, review old/new expressions side by side with Diff Checker.
Run Cron Parser after edits so reviewers can detect accidental field shifts quickly.
よくある質問
Should we store only natural-language schedule text?
No. Keep the original expression as source of truth and attach readable text as annotation.
Can parser output differ by locale?
Yes. Locale affects wording, so keep the raw cron line in runbooks for precision.
