Questions

How do I convert a cron expression from MSK to SAST?

SAST is currently 1 hour behind MSK. Subtract 1 hour to the hour field, and shift the day-of-week if the time crosses midnight. For example, 0 9 * * 1-5 (weekdays at 09:00 MSK) becomes 0 8 * * 1-5 in SAST.

What is the time difference between MSK and SAST?

Moscow Time is UTC+3 and South Africa Standard Time is UTC+2. Right now sAST is currently 1 hour behind MSK.

Does daylight saving time affect MSK to SAST cron conversion?

Neither MSK nor SAST observes daylight saving time, so the 1 hour difference stays the same all year.

What is midnight MSK in SAST cron?

Midnight in MSK (0 0 * * *) is 0 23 * * * in SAST, on the previous day.
