I knew that I forgot something in my original message. . .
In addition to what I already stated, the backups for the two different
directories have different version/retention requirements, thus the need for
different management classes.

I created one schedule for the weekday backups, and it is working without
any problems since the default MC (MC01) is the correct MC for these
backups.
However, when I create the second schedule for the Saturday backups, and
assign the new Policy Domain to the second schedule, it also works but also
uses the default MC because I can't find any way to force it to use a
different MC (MC02) within the same Policy Domain.
I didn't have any problem creating and activating a Policy Domain with
multiple management classes, but can I actually use anything other than the
default?

You could define two schedules...type cmd...one for weekdays, the other for
Saturday's and associate the client with both schedules.

Can anyone tell me if its possible to select a management class other than
the default for the Policy Domain when setting up a client backup schedule?
We have a new Windows client which wants to back up one directory on
weekdays, and another directory on Saturdays.

I created a new Policy Domain, Policy Set, MC, and Backup Copy Group to
handle the weekday backups. Can I create another MC and Backup Copy Group
under the same Policy Domain for the Saturday backup, or do I need an
entirely new Policy Domain? I've found how to specify a MC for an archive,
but I can't find anything similar for backups.

Thanks,
Scott
