Robert,

If I understand your question correctly, yes you can.  You can leave each client set for 
a specific "default" schedule and then override that with the group definition. 
 You can set the group to run a completely different schedule for the backups as well as 
dictating the time the group runs the backups.  You'll need to set your NetWorker GUI 
options to display hidden fields (if you're on Windows) or use the Detail option in the 
Unix NetWorker GUI, so that you can select a different backup schedule for the group 
definition to use.  Whatever backup level or backup schedule definition you select in the 
group definition, will override the local client schedule.


Tip: When using a group schedule to override a client schedule
(particularly in an environment where both client and group schedules
are used), I normally create a special schedule to use in the client
resource. I call this "Using group schedule" and set it to
"skip skip skip skip skip skip skip". This doesn't affect the operation,
since it is overridden anyway, but it makes the setup easier to
understand when you look at it later.
