No caso de o site dele ficar inativo:
Uso:
solo -port=PORT COMMAND
where
PORT some arbitrary port number to be used for locking
COMMAND shell command to run
options
-verbose be verbose
-silent be silent
Use assim:
* * * * * solo -port=3801 ./job.pl blah blah
Script:
#!/usr/bin/perl -s

# solo v1.7
# Prevents multiple cron instances from running simultaneously.
