Hi Julie,

Yes, you can schedule hourly backups. The start time field is filled in only to
indicate when you want the schedule to run the first time. Thereafter the start
time is "rolled forward" to the next scheduled time, which in your case would
be an hour later, etc.

Regards,

Andy

Subject: Hourly schedules?


Does anyone know if you can use the ADSM scheduler to run hourly backups?
We have a request to back up DB2 log files hourly.  I looked briefly at the
GUI central scheduler.  You can specify HOURS as the period by startup
windows, but you must specify a start time.  So I'm confused.. thanks for
any clarification!
