I think you have two options here. The first one is to make your schedule look like something like this: Schedule { Name = "EveryOtherMonth" Run = Full on 1st sun jan at 00:00 Run = Differential on 1st sun feb at 00:00 Run = Full on 1st sun mar at 00:00 Run = Differential on 1st sun apr at 00:00 Run = Full on 1st sun may at 00:00 Run = Differential on 1st sun jun at 00:00 Run = Full on 1st sun jul at 00:00 Run = Differential on 1st sun aug at 00:00 Run = Full on 1st sun sep at 00:00 Run = Differential on 1st sun oct at 00:00 Run = Full on 1st sun nov at 00:00 Run = Differential on 1st sun dec at 00:00 Run = Differential on 2nd-5th sun at 00:00 Run = Incremental on mon-sat at 00:00 } The other would be to make use of the "Max Full Interval" statement for the Job resource and omit "Full" runs in your schedule. > Restore Question: > > If one desires a restore and there is data in incrementals, > differentials and a full at the beginning.

Though, it may depend on the order of the JobIDs, if you input them by hand. But I don't know that for sure.
