Hi, Our backups are run in 3 phases (7pm, 9pm, and 4am) to allow
certain tasks (ie. Windows ntbackup jobs, mysql dumps, etc.) to complete before
backing them up. We do differential backups mon-thu, and full backups on
Fridays. The first Full backup of the month becomes an archive backup
that is kept indefinitely. The problem occurs when the first day of the month is a
Saturday (such as this month). Phase 3 of the “monthly” job
will run on the first of the month, and phases 1 and 2 will run the following
Friday. Is there any way to make a schedule specification such as “1st
fri at 9:00pm + 7 hours” ? Or has anyone else resolved this issue differently? Thanks, Brent. |
