Questions

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

UTC is currently 2 hours behind SAST. Subtract 2 hours 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 SAST) becomes 0 7 * * 1-5 in UTC.

What is the time difference between SAST and UTC?

South Africa Standard Time is UTC+2 and Coordinated Universal Time is UTC+0. Right now uTC is currently 2 hours behind SAST.

Does daylight saving time affect SAST to UTC cron conversion?

Neither SAST nor UTC observes daylight saving time, so the 2 hours difference stays the same all year.

What is midnight SAST in UTC cron?

Midnight in SAST (0 0 * * *) is 0 22 * * * in UTC, on the previous day.
