Hello ! I need some advice concerning schedules and definitions of pools.
My idea is to do as follows: I want to have 4 tapes Monday-Thursday for differential backups and I need 10 tapes for full backups on Fridays (2 tapes per weekend, up to 5 fridays). I need a 4 weeks of full backup of every weekend and the diff backups from each workday for up to 4 days. I want to have the differential backups only from the last friday but I am stuck with the definition of the FullPool statement. It becomes more complicated when I start to set 1st Monday etc., since it differs every month. Maybe my thoughts are too complicated or I missed an option field? What I did so far is: (sorry for the line break) Schedule { Name = "Cycle" Run = Level=Full Pool=Freitag1 1st Friday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes Run = Level=Full Pool=Freitag2 2nd Friday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes Run = Level=Full Pool=Freitag3 3rd Friday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes Run = Level=Full Pool=Freitag4 4th Friday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes Run = Level=Full Pool=Freitag5 5th Friday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes Run = Level=Differential Pool=Montag FullPool=Freitag1 Monday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes Run = Level=Differential Pool=Dienstag FullPool=Freitag1 Tuesday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes Run = Level=Differential Pool=Mittwoch FullPool=Freitag1 Wednesday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes Run = Level=Differential Pool=Donnerstag FullPool=Freitag1 Thursday at 20:00 SpoolData=yes } I would really like to keep each day on one tape as it has to be kept outside the office. I would appreciate any ideas :-) Have a nice weekend, Damian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
