Hawkeye is (was, really) a system monitoring tool built on top of Condor.  The 
data gathering system built into it is the ability of the startd to 
periodically run "jobs", the output of which is incorporated into the 
machine's ClassAd.  Many people refer to this mechanism as Hawkeye, hence the 
confusion.

What you want to look into is the STARTD_CRON family of configuration 
parameters.

Hope this helps
