Hello,
It may be more simpler to use cmd line backup to start a group with level
and pool argument, atleast you will not need to make sure the client
exists in two separate group and manage them.
Having a simple Tape cleanup script might assist you in cleaning up
expired tapes as well.

Re: Schedule overrides
So group schedule overrides client schedules?
I think it would be clever, if that was only true, if the clients used the
default schedule. But if the clients used a custom schedule, and that
would override the group schedule, offers a little more flexibility.
But I find it interesting that you're using client schedules as a rule. I
like this idea of group schedules, it keep things simple. All the clients
in every group do Full backups at the same day.
In my case I have a seperate Incremental group and a Full group for every
day. The inc group does not run when the Full group does it's Full (which
otherwise has skip). With this schema we do Full once a month,
incremental every day, and Level backup every weekend . By separating the
Full backup from the inc and L9 backups with pools, we make most out of
the space because the inc and L9 expires before the Full backups, thus
freeing up tapes.
But it would be kind of interesting to know about other strategies.

Hello,
You may need to move that client to another group, use cmd line backup or
forgo using group schedule, personally, i prefer not using group schedule,
that give me flexibility to use various schedule with clients and still
group the clients in a group, it all depends on what your environment is
like and what you are trying to accomplish.

Schedule overrides
Hi.
We're using schedules configured on per group level, so all clients in the
same group use the same schedule.
But is there a way to make an exception, and configure a schedule on a
single client in a group, so that client uses different schedule than the
other clients?
