Hello everyone,

I'm new on this list and also starting with Netbackup so bare with me :)

As I was trying to understand what goes on when I have a calendar-based 
schedule with a window that spans midnight I just found out there are some 
issues with this & the latest 6.5.2.  Please check this scenario...

I perform a full-weekly on Friday (Friday is the only runday) and the window 
goes from Friday 6pm until Monday 5am.  Assuming "Retries allowed after 
runday" is unchecked and that by Friday midnight the job is still queued... 
Will the job exit with a 196 exit-status at midnight?  Is this the behaviour 
now with 6.5.2? Was it always like this?  

I used to think that by entering the queue (at Friday 6pm) it was going to 
stay there , even after midnight, just as long as it was within the window 
timeframe AND because it was started on its runday..it would stay there even 
though the next day wasn't a runday.  Apparently this changed in 6.5.2 (based 
on what I've been reading) and it seems this is the correct behaviour ?

Thanks in advance,
Jorge
