Can you please help me to write the Cron schedule for the below format:

Need to schedule alert for every 2 mins after 10th min (1, 12, 22, 32 ..) interval.

Thanks in advance.

This would do what you (say you) like

1,12,22,32,42,52 * * * *

it can also be written

2-52/10 * * * *

But perhaps the first "1" should be a "2" to be consistent?

eer, well. you're right linu1988. The text and the example don't add up.

Every 2 mins after the 10th (what the text says) is;

12-59/2 * * * *

i.e. 12, 14, 16, 18 ... 58

However, see below for the schedule according to the supplied sample intervals.

Yes, this should be done not 1 then 12. This is the best answer for your question.
