AIX 7 Process Cron Monitor
The Cron daemon is not running. Check the Diagnostic and Recovery results to see if further action is required.
The Cron daemon facilitates scheduled command execution.
An unhealthy state indicates that the Cron daemon is not running.
Check the daemon on the system by running 'ps -ef | grep cron' or by viewing the diagnostic in the Operations Manager Console. If it is down, you can start the process using the command '/usr/sbin/cron &' or by clicking the recovery link in the Operations Manager Console.
For root cause analysis, check the system log file by using the command 'errpt', and view any related entries at the time of failure.
