Centos LInux shell script execute 2 minutes after the server has been rebooted

Question

I would like to have a simple shell script that will be executed 2 min after my server came up after reboot.

I just want to have a service restarted. can anyone advice? Thanks.

Why not just fix the problem that requires the service to be restarted in the first place? — Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams, Sep 06 '11 at 07:47

Create an at job on system boot, either from a new init script or from /etc/rc.local.

echo "command to run etc" | at `date --date='2 minutes' +%H:%M`
