cron-script-log-redirect-missing-causes-silent-failures

Cron scripts registered without stdout/stderr redirect (e.g., >> /var/log/vault-hot-cache.log 2>&1) produce no observable output when they fail, making debugging impossible. Always add log redirect when registering cron jobs, and confirm the log file path is writable by the executing user.
