Begging pardon... I know you can enter manual overrides in the Unix GUI,
I just don't know how to put in the text override commands.
The string, "full second saturday every month" when put into the
override field as text will create a full backup every 2nd Saturday of
the month regardless of what date that Saturday falls on(as long as its
before the 14th;-) ). As stated AFAIK you can only use the Windows GUI
or nsradmin to enter it as text. I've have many of my schedules setup
this way and I tested the above override string before sending it just
to make sure it works(FYI: 6.1.2 but I don't think it matters).

If anyone is interested, we can probably send out script into the list.
It's not ready yet though, otherwise I'd just send it.
The problem is that you cannot define the schedule using the weekly
schedule as it changes every day.
You cannot use a date, as for example, In Feburary the 2nd saturday is
the
8th and in September the 2nd saturday is the 13th.
the only way to do it is either manually or using a script.
incidently, in the unix gui, you just go to schedules and click on the
date
you want to change and you can select an override from there

You can set an override that occurs ever month(or
week/quarter/year/etc..).
For example put the below in your override field:
full second saturday every month
You can put this in via nsradmin or the Windows GUI, but I don't think
you can put override commands in the Unix GUI(at least I don't see how).
In the Windows GUI go to Options->Customize and uncheck "Display
Schedules as Calendars". Then you have the text override field when you
go to edit a schedule.
Hope this helps,
Joel

Hello List ,
A have a silly problem...
A want to create a schedule that takes a full backup every second
saturday of the month.
How do I do this ? The only way ( according me ) is to plan an override
each month.
But it seems a bit strange to do this for each month until ? "2010" ?
Any thaughts , suggestions ?
Thx a lot.
