Greg,
We had many a good post related to this about two or three months back so=
rather than risk overlooking any of the well-made points, I'll recommen=
d that you go look through the archives. You'll find plenty of material t=
hat will answer your question. The bottom line is:
Calendar based scheduling in NetBackup doesn't work the way NetBackup use=
rs believe it should.
Many people have already raised the issue of crossing the midnight line a=
nd it's affect on calendar based scheduling with Veritas.
I'm not sure Veritas recognizes it as a problem yet. Their initial stance=
was it's working the way it was designed (which may be true ergo point n=
umber one applies)
Sorry I can't be of more assistance but the last time members of this gro=
up discussed this subject it was quite lengthy.
Regards,
Dennis

I recently changed my scheduling over to calender based to facilitate a
monthly backup on the last day of the month. I ran into a problem last ni=
ght
where I lost connection to the library thus causing the backups from 8:00=
PM
on to fail. I manually ran these backups during the day today. I just
returned from checking that the backups were running tonight (appox 10 PM=
)
and found that the backups that ran last night before the failure at 8:00
ran but the ones that I ran this morning did not even attempt to run. Is =
the
reason because of the manual backup counted as a backup for this calender
day or was it that the retries may have extended over into this calender =
day
thus fulfilling the calender backup requirement?
