Re: [BackupPC-users] Problem with WakupSchedule and Backupplan

2021-05-04 Thread Ralph Sikau
Thanks, Adam, for the detailed explanation. Just one more
question:
What happens if $Conf{BackupsDisable} is set to 1 and the
backup of Host A is started on Monday and of Host B on
Tuesday each at a given time by a cron job? How does this
interact with the WakeupSchedule?
I have a large media library which is too big to be backed
up on a single day. That's why I'd like to split up the real
host in several virtual hosts each defining a special part
of the library and being backed up at night on a special day
of the week. The PCNightlyJobs shall run during daytime.
Can you give me an example of a correct configuration for
this? Thanks in advance!

Regards, Ralph

Greg,
I think it would help if I could get answers to
thesequestions:1. For how long does the backup system STAY
awake afterhaving been awakened according to the
WakeupSchedule?2. When a backup starts at 11:30 pm will it
go on then overmidnight during the following night or will
ist go on holdat midnight?3. Is there a possibility to see
what is hold in the backupqueue?Maybe you have the answers.
Thanks, Ralph

[BackupPC-users] Problem with WakupSchedule and Backupplan

2021-04-27 Thread Ralph Sikau
Hi,

I hope that somebody can help. I'm lost with the parameters
of WakeupSchedule and Backupplan.
My Intention is that BackupPC wakes up once at 3 pm to do
the nightly Jobs and the backup of a host shall start
shortly before midnight and run from then throughout the
following night.
Whatever I try the backup of the host always starts at 3 pm.
Is that because the BackupPCNightlyPeriod is set to 8 so
that on days without doing nightly jobs the host backup
starts instead? What's wrong here?
I also tried to start the backup jobs as cron jobs. That
didn't work either. 

Thanks for any assistance.

Ralph
