Power Management - Day of week usage differ from cron

[Florent]

Hi,
We see a weird usage with Power Management (problem only with Shutdown and Reboot , not happen with Wake On Lan).
Number of “Day of Week” does not have the same use as cron.

For example :

40 11 * * 3

-In FOG : correspond to TUESDAY
-In CRON : correspond to WEDNESDAY

I think it’s a bug on FOG Client interpretation of cron ?
It is possible to restore for Shutdown and Reboot the same usage of “day of week” of cron like this ?

0 - Sun      Sunday
1 - Mon      Monday
2 - Tue      Tuesday
3 - Wed      Wednesday
4 - Thu      Thursday
5 - Fri      Friday
6 - Sat      Saturday
7 - Sun      Sunday

Regards

@Florent Thanks for letting us know. You are right there. From https://www.quartz-scheduler.net/documentation/quartz-3.x/tutorial/crontriggers.html I figured that the scheduler we use is just a little different than the usual CRON syntax:

… Days-of-Week can be specified as vaules between 1 and 7 (1 = Sunday) …

I just pushed a fix to github and compiled a new Modules.dll. Download it, rename to Modules.dll and place in C:\Program Files (x86)\FOG directory (might as well rename the original file instead of overwriting it).

Thanks for your quickly solution.
It’s resolve this.

It’s possible to push it to the next release ?

We’ll definitely include that fix into the next fog-client release. Right now I can’t tell you when that will be. Our main client developer is very busy and I won’t be able to push out a new release without him.

@Sebastian-Roth
Ok thanks.
Waiting, workaround for us is to use SUN, MON, TUE, WED, THU, FRI, SAT instead of number for Shutdown and Reboot
