    I'm trying to set crontab entry for every 30 minutes, but I end up doing it for every hour. I'm using the following entry in crontab:

    30 * * * * snap.sh

    Platform: AIX 5.3

    Thanks in advance.

    If you want it every 30 min maybe you want 5:00, 5:30, 6:00, 6:30?
    0,30 * * * * snap.sh
    I'm sure the manpage for crontab would tell you this too.
