      Issue description

      Description:  RH199 Section 7.2 the crontab on line 2.3 doesn't ever execute. Days were changed to the last and next day names. Crond is running. 

      The crontab entry */2 * * * Tue-Thu ... is not valid because cron does not support day-of-week ranges using names like Tue-Thu. Please update the entry to either use numeric days (2-4) or list day names individually (Tue,Wed,Thu). This correction should allow the cron job to execute as expected.

      Steps to reproduce:

       

      Workaround:

       

      Expected result:
