Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH docs] calendar-events: add a note about `systemd-analyze calendar`
Date: Mon, 14 Apr 2025 12:29:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250414102948.87726-1-s.sterz@proxmox.com> (raw)
this is mentioned in the `systemd.time(7)` manpage, but adding it here
to should give it more exposure. it's very handy and hopefully avoids
some frustration for users less familiar with calendar events.

+NOTE: You can use `systemd-analyze calendar` to see whether a given calendar
+event specification is valid and when it would be triggered next. By passing the
+`--iterations=<N>` flag you can also let it output the next `<N>` times the
+calendar event would trigger (you need to replace `<N>` with a valid integer).
