Right now i am running my cron job everyday at 3.00PM
0 15 * * *
But I want to run my cron job twice in a day. 10.30AM and 2.30PM
0 30 10 * * *
I believe this command will run at 10.30AM. How should i run it in 2.30PM?
Cron utility is an effective way to schedule a routine background job at a specific time and/or day on an on-going basis.
Linux Crontab Format
MIN HOUR DOM MON DOW CMD
Example::Scheduling a Job For a Specific Time
The basic usage of cron is to execute a job in a specific time as shown below. This will execute the Full backup shell script (full-backup) on 10th June 08:30 AM.
Please note that the time field uses 24 hours format. So, for 8 AM use 8, and for 8 PM use 20.
30 08 10 06 * /home/yourname/full-backup
- 30 – 30th Minute
- 08 – 08 AM
- 10 – 10th Day
- 06 – 6th Month (June)
- *– Every day of the week
In your case, for 2.30PM,
30 14 * * * YOURCMD
- 30 – 30th Minute
- 14 – 2PM
- *– Every day
- *– Every month
- *– Every day of the week

From cron manual http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/crontab.5.html:
Lists are allowed. A list is a set of numbers (or ranges) separated by commas. Examples: "1,2,5,9", "0-4,8-12".
So in this case it would be:
30 10,14 * * *
