Fix that Manual Backups do not influence Frequency Based Schedules
Created: 05 Nov 2009 | 3 comments
Hi,
When I take a Manual Backup of a certain policy (to test the policy or a tapedrive or so), this Manual Backup intervenes with the normal schedule.
So for instance when I test a backup during they day, it will not run again during its normal schedule at night.
I would like to have an ability to test backups that do NOT influence any schedule please :)

copy policy and rename as
copy policy and rename as test - run copy.
when done, delete copy .
NBU 7.0.1 on Solaris 10
writing to EMC 4206 VTL
duplicating to LTO2 in SL8500
(Soon to be LTO5)
using ACSLS 7.3.1
That is a workaround
Indeed a workaround...
Wouldn't a nice simple option in a dropdown menu be handy?
I agree with Fredster
If a backup fails, and I can not get to it until the next day to rerun it, I should not have to create a "rerun" policy to rerun the backup. I shouold just be able to perform a manual backup and then not have to worry about how my frequency is affected.
Would you like to reply?
