Hi,
I'm currently trying to import data from a DB into ES using the jdbc input plugin.
I want to run the pipeline during the night between 9pm and 4am.
How can I define my schedule? I've tried '\*/1 21-04 \* \* \*' but that does not seem to work.
Thanks

Have you tried `21-23,0-4` yet?
(I don't know if Rufus Scheduler supports this syntax, but it might.)

What I see with the schedule '\*/1 21-04 \* \* \*' is that the pipeline only runs till 0h.
It might be because of the leading '0' when defining 4am.
I will give your suggestion a go. Thanks!
