title: Jenkins to monitor external cron jobs
body: <p>We are using a dedicated Amazon Ubuntu ec2 instance as Cron server, which executed 16 cron jobs at different time intervals  i.e,  10 cron jobs in morning 4:15 - 7:15 and the rest @ 23:00 - 23:50. I get the results via email. I want to configure something, which shoots email message at the end of they day listing the cron jobs that are executed successfully and the one that failed.</p>
  
  <p>I have a jenkins configured ubuntu  instance for auto-building Dev, Beta, Staging &amp; Live environments. Can i add these <strong>cron jobs</strong>(<em>shell scripts</em>)  as external jobs in the <strong>jenkins</strong> and monitor them. Is it possible?</p>
