Re: [ADSM-L] Nodes with different drive list under One Scheduler.

So, i apologize if i missed you saying this, but is there a particular
reason you want to schedule Selective Full backups for all these nodes,
rather than just doing incrementals?

Also, is there a reason you can't set up 10 schedules that are all scheduled
for the same time?

regards,

Paul
