I believe that it means that the job goes active after midnight.
But you have to have 6.5.2 or better with an eng binary or 6.5.3 to have the
problem.

Anyone else
seen this?

The
description is a bit ambiguous so I’m trying to get clarity:
“A potential for missed backups without notification has been discovered in
NetBackup Server/Enterprise Server when calendar based schedules have a
configured window spanning midnight and go Active after midnight. This
may result in a client backup not running during the next open window
for any calendar based schedules configured in the same policy. This is
independent of the scheduled backup type being configured as Full or
Incremental.”
Does this
refer to jobs going active after midnight or the policy itself being made
active after midnight?
I think it’s referring to when queued jobs go active after midnight but wanted
to be sure.
TIA,
-Dave
