Defining a schedule for a simple backup routine
As an example, suppose you want to define a schedule with a full
backup every Friday and incremental backups on other weekdays, all at
21:00h and retained for 4 weeks, plus a full backup each month
retained for 12 months.
Data Protector has several predefined schedules. “Weekly full” is close
to what is needed—full every Friday and Incr1 every weekday at
21:00h. Incr1 backups back up all changes since the last full backup.
To create the defined schedule:
1. When defining your backup specification, at step 7 (see page 12),
go to the Schedule tab.
2. Click Predefined.
3. Select Weekly full and click OK.
4. Click Add.
5. Under
Recurring, select Monthly.
Under
Time options, specify the time for the monthly backup.
Under
Session options, from the Backup protection
drop-down list, select Weeks and type the number of weeks in the
box below (1 year = 52 weeks).
6. Click OK.
7. Click Apply.
