Creating a special schedule

Hi all,

I have problem creating a schedule which will do a full backup on 2nd Monday of the month and skips all the other days. I have try to copy existing skip all backup schedule and override with full on 2nd monday but no success. Dumb and dumber. I know it's something really simple but I can't figure it out.

This is for offsite backups as customer wants offsite backup tape on the 2nd Monday of month delivered.

NW version is 7.5SP2 running on LInux.

    Hi,

    may be better you create a new schedule and do not copy an existing one.

    try the following:

    In nsradmin do:

    create type: nsr schedule; name: full every 2nd monday; period: Week; action: skip; override: full 2 mon every month

    Well, what you have done looks correct. Ensure that you have not set the scedule on the group which might be over-riding the client settings.

    Rovin.

    This one works for us:

    all days skip

    and this override:

    Full Every Two Weeks Monday

    regards

    I did mark the answer correct once already. Only third attempt was succesful. Thanks for pointing out this problem.

    Hi Peter

    If the schedule is full backup on last Saturday of every month and incr. backup  on every other day of the month, how would the NSR schedule command be?

    Thanks

    Hi Ren

    I'm afraid that you can't do "last Saturday of the month" in NetWorker as it gives inconsistent results - please refer to
