Hello,

What I do for this situation...

I setup 3 client entries with 3 different schedules in 3 different
groups.

"Every night an incremental backup is done (the "daily" backup)
Every Friday a full backup is done (the "weekly" backup)"

Weekly schedule with incremental everyday full on Friday but override
skip first Friday of every month.

"Every month a full backup is done (the "monthly" backup)"

Weekly schedule with every day skipped except an override full first
Friday of every month and override skip first Friday every quarter.

"Every 3 months a full backup is done (the "quarterly" backup)"

Weekly schedule with every day skipped except an override full first
Friday of every quarter.

You have to run each client entry from a different group.

Clear as mud...

If you need any clarification shoot me any email.

Joel

Subject: [Networker] Backup schedules.

Hi,



I'm using Networker 6.0.Build.153 and I want to set up a schedule of
backups
like this:



Every night an incremental backup is done (the "daily" backup)

Every Friday a full backup is done (the "weekly" backup)

Every month a full backup is done (the "monthly" backup)

Every 3 months a full backup is done (the "quarterly" backup)



I have the daily incremental backup and the Friday weekly backup working
fine using tapes labelled "daily" and "weekly", but I can't see a way of
making the monthly and quarterly ones work. Each thing I have tried is
either completely ignored by Networker or the usual daily or weekly one
is
done instead.



Do I have to create separate schedules for monthly and quarterly with
"skip"
set in the schedules for when they are running?



Kind regards



John Chandler
