How to Schedule ADRCI Entry.

I’m Attaching purge_adr_logs.ksh text file (You should save as

.ksh)

purge_adr_logs.ksh

The Directory which I used is

/home/oracle/epsilon/scripts/monitor/purge_adr_logs.ksh this
directory should be same in Crontab also.

Crontab –e is used to edit or make entry of cornjob in crontab.

Inside the same directory log file also should be created, after
creating permissions should be set for that PWD (Present Working
Directory)
