But, if I enable the group and skip every day I'll get an skip bootstrap
report for this group every day. I want this group disabled and only
"execute" it using command line nor the GUI (it works ok using the 'savegrp'
command as most people recommend to me).
Now I would like to schedule it for a concrete day (i.e. next sunday) so the
operator can insert the HISTORY tapes in the autochanger and launch the
process that will remain scheduled for this day. The operator can then
shutdown the networker program and logoff of his windows session (terminal
or console).
Is the AT windows command a good utility for launching my 'savegrp' command?
(I ask this because of the SYSTEM account, permissions, etc.). Our Networker
services are running using the SYSTEM account in the server so I suppose
that this trick will work but ... any idea or comment about this?
Thanks.
