See if your class and schedule is listed.

Have you tried a manual backup using this schedule?

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Backups that do not run


This is starting to really throw me, and I cannot find a reason for it.

We have a class with a Full and Incremental schedule defined. The class is
active. I have not found a way to 'disable' a schedule. The incremental
backups are all running fine, but the full backup for this class does not
run. I have been watching it for a few weeks now and trying to figure out
why, but it seems the Full for this class is just not registered with the
scheduler (or whatever Veritas has)

Parameters for the Full Backup type is as follows:
Start Window: 7am Saturday - 6am Sunday
Type: Full Backup
Freqeuncy: 2 Days
All overrides are turned off
Multiplexing 1
Retention 35 days.

As far as I can tell, this is identical to the defintions in the classes
that work. I can find no 'hidden' options and the Incrementals for the class
is happeneing. The class is enabled. Anyone notice that their Full backups
may not be going as planned? All other classes, the Full backups work
fine...

I'm thinking I may just delete the class and recreate it, but would like to
know the reason this is happeneing....

Jason
