Re: [Bacula-users] How to configure schedule for run full the first week

Hello Jeremy,

I'm trying to do is run during the first weekend ( fri, sat and sun ) all my full backups with the following schedule :

Set backup1:
Run=Level=Full 1st fri at 18:00
Set backup2:
Run=Level=Full 1st sat at 18:00
Set backup3
Run=Level=Full 1st sun at 18:00

e.g. full backup for the month of September 2012 the execution would be:

Backup1 -> 7 September
Backup2 -> 1 September
Backup3 -> 3 September

but I want this schedule:

Backup1 -> 7 September
Backup2 -> 8 September
Backup3 -> 9 September

do you understand now?

thank very much for help me
Regards

Hi,

Maybe that for 1st Sunday of the month:

Schedule {
  Name = "SomeSchedule"
  Run = Level=Full 1st sun at 9:00
}

or that for Saturday and Sunday on the month:

Schedule {
  Name = "SomeSchedule"
  Run = Level=Full 1st sat-sun at 9:00
}

Here is more info about that:

Hello Gani,

I want to perform a full backup monthly on the first weekend of every month, but with the configuration you propose this would not be possible as for example in September on the first Friday of the month is 7 and the first Saturday and Sunday has been the 1 and 2, so that backups have been divided in two weeks.

I need a configuration that can ensure that backups will be released consecutively Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

thank very much

Ana

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but I think the schedule Gani proposed does exactly what you want. It will always make a full backup on the 1st Saturday (or the first Saturday and Sunday) of every month. The "1st" keyword points to week-of-month when use like that as opposed to day-of-month you seem to think.

To make full backups on the first Friday, Saturday and Sunday of every month just make it "Run = Level=Full 1st fri-sun at 9:00".

Regards,
Jeremy
