James,

Your situation can be solved quite simply by setting your pstfiles bu
copygroup to FREQUENCY=7 and just include *:\...\* pstfiles.  That way it'll
only back up every 7 days even if it's been modified.  If it hasn't been
modified, it'll wait until it is modified, so long as that's longer than 7
days.  No need for multiple nodes, weird include/exclude shell games,
multiple schedules, or any other trickery.  However, this doesn't
necessarily make the backups happen on weekends, but if that's a negotiable
requirement, then this is a very easy solution.

That's twice in one week that copygroup settings have come up.  Is this one
of the seven signs of the apocalypse?
