Cron jobs at 'random' times

[mark_h]

I am intending to install DA on a low spec VPS.

Some of the sites that will be hosted on the website will have maintenance cron jobs running each night, although the exact time is not critical.

I do not want the cron jobs running when the server is busy with other users.

The ideal setup would have the cron jobs running between midnight and 7AM when the server load is below a certain figure.

Is there any way to get DA to do this.

Thanks

That page gives instructions on how to set cron jobs at fixed times/intervals.

If the server is busy at the chosen time the job will still run, rather than wait untill the server is less busy.

The exact time the job is run does not matter, the server load is more critical.

There is nothing that I know of that will have it not run when server is busy. Why not just setup the cron for a time late at night when no one is on?
