Run a Jenkins job every one minute using H/1 * * * *

Question

How can I run a job created in Jenkins every one minute ? Am I missing anything?

PS: I'm trying not to use: */1 * * * *

Try * * * * * to run every minute.

Unfortunately H/1 * * * * does not work due to open defect.

The idea is to use H (so that Jenkins can to balance) if there are hundreds of jobs who have the same build period. */1 * * * * will do the same. – AKS May 01 '15 at 15:49

The question is more towards using H instead of * i.e. why H/1 * * * * is picking/scheduling the job for 1 hour difference (instead of 1 minute difference) while H/2 * * * * schedules the job for 2 minutes (as expected). – AKS May 06 '15 at 16:39

I see what you are trying to do. There seems to be an open defect - https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-22129 – vins May 06 '15 at 17:07

Your intuition is right, H/1 is supposed to behave like "run every minute".

However, there is a well-known bug in Jenkins. See JENKINS-22129.

Currently, H/1 behaves like "run every hour".

Hey pravi, this was mentioned in another answer many years ago. Try to avoid adding repeat answers. – Timothy G. Jun 16 '21 at 13:10
