That's exactly what I did.

I may have tried to cram too many ideas into this sentence.

My crontab looks like :

$ crontab -l
00 00 * * * /home/kevin/update_kitware.sh
00 22 * * * /home/kevin/backup_db.sh

The script that runs the dashboards looks like :

	$ head -n3 update_kitware.sh
	#!/bin/bash
	
	module load openmpi-x86_64



and it runs all of the dashboards :

	$ grep CTEST update_kitware.sh
	CTEST=/home/kevin/kitware/CMake_Build/bin/ctest
	time $CTEST  -S vtk.cmake
	time $CTEST  -S paraview.cmake
	time $CTEST  -S itk.cmake

I wonder if module itself doesn't like being run from cron...
