This will help to some point where for a specific backup profile I'd choose the hour of the day for backups that don't need a higher frequency..
But for me I have many large files changing frequently during the day so I need frequent backups during the day. The hourly backup was fine but now sometimes it can take up to 40mins to complete which makes my system a little sluggish during that time. It would be useful if I could perform the backup every two or three hours for example. If a user definable frequency is too complicated to implement then perhaps an additional predefined option could be provided. E.G. hourly, every 2 hours, every 4 hours, daily, monthly, etc. -- [enhancement] Possibility to select manual frequency for every x hours https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/479178 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Back In Time Team, which is the registrant for Back In Time. Status in Back In Time: Confirmed Bug description: I've been using BiT for almost a year now and it has worked well. I have the backup frequency set to hourly but would like to have it less frequent, like 2 or 3 hours. I have so many large files to back up that it takes almost 40 minutes to complete a backup. While the backup is being performed my system becomes a little sluggish so I would like to increase the interval of the backups. Daily backup is no good for me as the laptop is not left on overnight so the daily backup never runs. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~bit-team Post to : bit-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~bit-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
