vyos-1x generated crontab nodes missleading
Closed, ResolvedPublicBUG

Description

Looking at the new crontab XML generated interface I found this inconsitency:

cpo@CR1# set system task-scheduler task foo executable arguments
Possible completions:
   <minutes>    Execution interval in minutes
   <minutes>m   Execution interval in minutes
   <hours>h     Execution interval in hours
   <days>d      Execution interval in days

Shouldn this be the executables arguments? E.G. -f foo -b bar -d debug

also I'm guessing that this is the crontab syntax. Adding an example would be nice.

cpo@CR1# set system task-scheduler task foo crontab-spec
Possible completions:
   <text>       UNIX crontab time specification string
