You must go in the Options menu of your Network Administrator program, select 
Customize, and then uncheck 'Display schedule as calandar'.

Then open you schedule, and type this kind of command :

That is for and incremental everyday, a full every first Friday, a skip every 
Saturday and Sunday and a level 5 the other Friday of the month :

Action :

incr incr incr incr incr incr incr 
incr incr incr incr incr incr incr 
incr incr incr incr incr incr incr 
incr incr incr incr incr incr incr 
incr incr incr

Override :

full first friday every month
5 second friday every month
5 third friday every month
5 fourth friday every month
5 fifth friday every month
skip first saturday every month
skip second saturday every month
skip third saturday every month
skip fourth saturday every month
skip fifth saturday every month
skip first sunday every month
skip second sunday every month
skip third sunday every month
skip fourth sunday every month
skip fifth sunday every month


It works only in the Windows GUI. If you don't have a Windows workstation with 
NW Admin, use the nsradmin on you unix host. The command are the same.

Hi, All

I'm trying to create a schedule that takes a full backup on the 1st
Sunday of every month and skips every other day. in the section "How to
create schedules" in the manual it describes exactly what I'm trying to
do. the problem is that it doesn't work. the paragraph in the manual
reads as follows:

If you select the Month value for the period attribute, the backup
level you selected for a given day of a given week is passed on
accordingly to the other months. For example, if the first Sunday of a
month was designated as a full backup, then the first Sunday of all
the months would have that corresponding backup level.

however when I select "month" as the period and change the first Sunday
of the current month to full the change propagates to the same date in
the next month. Changing Sunday, Dec 1, 2002 also changes Wednesday, Jan
1, 2003 not Sunday, Jan 4, 2003. how can I get this thing to do what I
want? or have I uncovered yet another "feature".
