systemctl-list-timers
List scheduled timer units
TLDR
List active timers
SYNOPSIS
systemctl list-timers [OPTIONS] [PATTERN...]
DESCRIPTION
systemctl list-timers displays timer units currently active in memory. The output shows next activation time, time until activation, last trigger time, time since last trigger, the timer unit, and the unit it activates.
Timer units are systemd's replacement for cron, providing scheduled activation of services with more flexibility and better logging integration.
PARAMETERS
-a, --all
Include inactive timers--state= STATE
Filter by state--no-legend
Suppress header and footer--no-pager
Disable pager
OUTPUT COLUMNS
NEXT - Next scheduled activation
LEFT - Time until next activation
LAST - Previous trigger time
PASSED - Time since last trigger
UNIT - Timer unit name
ACTIVATES - Unit triggered by this timer
CAVEATS
Times are relative to the current time. Transient timers created with `systemd-run` also appear here. Some system timers run very infrequently (weekly, monthly).
HISTORY
The list-timers subcommand provides an overview of scheduled tasks, replacing traditional `crontab -l` listings with richer information about timing and triggered services.
