It's my impression that the cron schedule below will run at 2AM UTC
not EST. Is that correct?
Yes, cron job will run on UTC time.
So to register cron on 2 AM EST you have to convert that time into UTC,
and the time is in 24-hours clock
EST:
New York, NY, USA ( EST UTC-5)
2 AM
Diff from UTC is -5
UTC
In UTC time will be ( 7 - 5 = 2 EST ) 7AM
CRON at 0 7 * * *
and for multiple 2AM US timezone first watch for diff and register cron on that UTC.
also, watch for daylight savings
