Interesting question. I'm not sure that you can with Splunk's cron notation. If the search doesn't consume many resources, just run it every hour. Otherwise I suppose you could:

  1. Make a saved search
  2. Use cron or a bash script on a linux host to run saved/searches/{name}/dispatch http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.3.1511/RESTREF/RESTsearch#saved.2Fsearches.2F.7Bname.7...

Check out http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1417098/cronjob-every-25-hours

I'm curious: what use case do you have for this search?
