[Veritas-bu] Backup Schedule NB 3.4

interesting...what patch level of 3.4 are you at?   There was a discussion
on this about two years ago and after much testing, etc. I believe we all
found that manual backups would potentially put the schedule off.

this is good.

thanks for testing it.

I tested it yesterday. The Class has been running at
around 2:00 AM every day. Yesterday, I ran a manual
backup at 4:00 PM. I would have expected it to wait
until 4:00 PM today to mrun it again. Instead it
automatically ran it at around 2:00 AM again.
