For the record.
I was recently out of town. Before I left, I manually ran a set of full
backups. Then I put in a freshly recycled tape.
While I was away, the first Sun of the month came by. This usually
fills the tape. To disable those backups, because I had recently run
them manually, I commented out the following lines from my schedule
resources:
$ grep "Full 1st" /usr/local/etc/bacula-dir.conf
# Run = Full 1st sun at 5:55
# Run = Full 1st sun at 8:15
# Run = Full 1st sun at 20:15
Then issued a reload within bconsole. Here's an example from that file:
Schedule {
Name = "WeeklyCycleDaytime"
# Run = Full 1st sun at 20:15
Run = Differential 2nd-5th sun at 20:15
Run = Incremental mon-sat at 20:15
}
I also set myself a reminder to reverse this after the 1st Sunday. The
above idea could be applied to other 'special' events.
