Re: [Networker] problem creating a monthly sechule

Tim,
Create a file named sched.tmpl with the following contents:
create name: test1;
type: NSR schedule;
action: "
skip skip skip skip skip skip skip
skip skip skip skip skip skip skip
skip skip skip skip skip skip skip
skip skip skip skip skip skip skip
skip skip skip skip skip skip skip
";
override: Full first Sunday every month;
Please note that in this case the schedule name is test1. Adjust it
according to your needs.
Then run the command:
"nsradmin -I sched.tmpl"
And you are done.
Regards,
        Itzik

Create a new schedule, something like "Full on 1st Sunday, skip all
others".  Use a period of month.  Go through the first month, and set
every day to "skip".

Now select the first Sunday of that month, and select an
"Override->full". Go to the next month, and all days should be
defaulting to "skip".  Again, select "Overrides->full*".  Repeat for
about 3 years.  :-)

If you're using a recent enough version of NetWorker, there might be an
easier way to do this, but you don't list what version you're using, so
I'm suggesting the way that has "worked" since time immemorial.
