    Typically, if a customer is running a process that is causing CPU/Memory issues, the customer is contacted and advised of the issue so they can adjust their script or disable it. You may also find third-party products such as Cloud Linux helpful for these types of issues. Thank you.

    CageFS will restrict user cron jobs to the caged environment: CloudLinux Documentation However, why not simply contact the user and advise them to stop running the script? Thank you.

    Hi so the process wont effect the server ? I have asked them but they have done nothing, just said they need it running every 2 hours. It's only Ghost installs it does this on.

    The cron job is caged if you have enabled CageFS, so it should not cause any issues. Thank you.
