+# cron/Scheduler
+
+The below commands will setup a cron daemon (scheduler) for running things like backups, statistic gathering and more via a schedule. While technically not required, we *strongly* recommend using cron for backups so you get the output via e-mail (or similar). This is also required if you want to monitor resource utilization via ```munin```.
+
+## Important Notes
+
+* This assumes you have setup ```msmtp``` for email notifications
+
+## Setup
+
+``` sh
+
+pacman -S cronie
+mkdir /etc/systemd/system/cronie.service.d
+cat > /etc/systemd/system/cronie.service.d/override.conf <<EOF
+[Service]
+ExecStart=
+ExecStart=/usr/bin/crond -n -m '/usr/bin/msmtp -t'
+EOF
+systemctl daemon-reload
+systemctl enable --now cronie
