OK. Tried to do it "my way". For example:
Schedule {
Name = "DailyCycle"
Run = Pool=Swapdisk3 Level=Full w01/w03 mon at 1:00
Run = Pool=Swapdisk3 Level=Incremental w01/w03 tue-fri at 1:00
Run = Pool=Swapdisk1 Level=Incremental w01/w03 sat-sun at 1:00
Run = Pool=Swapdisk1 Level=Full w02/w03 mon at 1:00
Run = Pool=Swapdisk1 Level=Incremental w02/w03 tue-fri at 1:00
Run = Pool=Swapdisk2 Level=Incremental w02/w03 sat-sun at 1:00
Run = Pool=Swapdisk2 Level=Full w03/w03 mon at 1:00
Run = Pool=Swapdisk2 Level=Incremental w03/w03 tue-fri at 1:00
Run = Pool=Swapdisk3 Level=Incremental w03/w03 sat-sun at 1:00
}
(It is a bit skewed since I want to do fulls on saturday and the week
obviously starts on monday)
But so far scheduled jobs show volume for job as "*unknown*" and there
is one more issue.
The jobs which are set to be run on connection from client (laptops) do
want the default pool for the job, they do not get schedule into
account.
Might indeed fidlde with the changer. (I do use vchanger anyway).
