Say you want to run a graph at the top of the hour. The Logistics Manager allows you to do that. But what if you want the graph at an arbitrary minute of the hour? For example, you want a graph that runs on the 15th and 45th minute of the hour. The "easy" thing would be to schedule a graph to run every 15 minutes, and have the graph check for the time as the first step, and only continuing if the the minute value is 15 or 45. The problem with this is that you still get runs for the unwanted times.
The attached work-around checks for the time, and sleeps (i.e. waits) for some time, and then doesn't execute the rest of the graph until the specified minute is reached. The conditions here are that the minute value has to be either 13-17 or 43-47.
