Hi all!
I`am sorry for the confusion... I was wondering about online database =
backup to same policy as the Subject of my email (database policy and =
several schedules) may give away...
Thanks for all info!!

Hello,=20
I believe the discussion so far has taken the wrong track...=20
Each policy may contain several different schedules.=20
All schedules within the policy must use the same File =
Selections, Clients, and Attributes (incl Storage Unit, queue Priority, =
Multiple Data Stream toggle, etc...).=20
! However, each schedule has an independent Schedule Type =
(Calendar or Freq.), Retention Period, Media Multiplexing, # of Copies, =
and, yes, you can over-ride the Storage Unit on a per-schedule basis. =
!=20
You can also exclude File Selections with a schedule specific =
exclude_list.<Policy>.<Schedule>. However, it's a bear to maintain. =
One could attempt this in order to have one policy per client. It's one =
way of doing things, but at the opposite end of the spectrum of where my =
environment is at.=20
As an example, there is a turnkey application running in our =
environment with an Oracle v8 runtime embedded beneath the application. =
There is (apparently) no known method to get a hot backup of the =
application data with the Oracle data (RMAN to disk?), so we have been =
asked to run cold backups 365 days of the year.=20
We have 3 schedules:=20
full-daily: Frequency (Sun-Fri - 16 hours), =
retained for 21 days=20
full: Calendar (Recur WeekDay - =
2/3/4/Last Saturday), retained for 2 months=20
full-month: Calendar (Recur WeekDay - 1st =
Saturday), retained for 7 months=20
The 7 month retention is local site custom (Host Properties -> =
Master Server -> Properties -> Retention Periods).=20
Remember, if the full-month uses 6 month retention, how old is =
the oldest backup in the catalog at 6 months + 2 days from one =
particular full-month? It's the next most recent full-month and it's 5 =
months and 2 days old. If your customer has been told backups are =
retained for 6 months, you better make sure you can live up to that and =
all other assurances you have given.=20

Hi Hampus.=20
=20
You will have to have different policies for each retention category. =
This was atleast the only way with versions up to 5.1, and i don't think =
they have changed it with MPs. I have created 2 policies for this =
daily_full (1 month retention), and monthly_full (12 months retention) =
to come around this one. It's the default- application-backup that =
controls this one.=20

Hi all!=20

Is there any smart way to have several schedules with different =
retention (i.e incr_daily, full_weekly, full_monthly) within the same =
policy?? Or do we need to seperate all these schedules to different =
policies still??=20
