To run cron every 5 minutes you need to add command like this:

*/5 * * * * /home/cdh_infa_user/data/pladmin/MyLinuxAgent/apps/Data_Integration_Server/data/scripts/Secureagent.sh

To run cron at 5 a clock you need record like this:

0 5 * * * /home/cdh_infa_user/data/pladmin/MyLinuxAgent/apps/Data_Integration_Server/data/scripts/Secureagent.sh
