Scheduling type backup

[adrianIDC]

I want to make the programming of machines as follows :

1 FULL backup during Monday of each month (4 MONDAY ).

The 5th copy FULL must first remove the previous month.

[foggy]

Set active fulls to be performed on Mondays, retention to 5 points, and adjust the job scheduling correspondingly. Create a pre- (or post-) job script that would check the beginning of the month and remove previous backups.

Thanks Foggy but my programming knowledge they are not very good .
How would that pre / post script?

[foggy]

I'm also not good at scripting, but you could ask for help in the corresponding subforum.

Thanks foggy.
I don't know if I explained well...

I don't want temporary incremental,I want every copy that is made is FULL BACKUP

[foggy]

Yes, I've got that, that's why I mentioned that job scheduling should be configured so that the job kicks in on active full days only.

[adrianIDC]

To stop the casill active active FULL BACKUP must first select a backup method .
or Reverse Incremental or Incremental.

Or that option should I choose to do it ?

I leave a screenshot

Thanks Foggy

[foggy]

It doesn't matter which backup method is selected in case the job does active full each time it is triggered.

[adrianIDC]

This is being more complicated than it seems and there must be a way that only a full backup job without incremental jobs.


Every Monday of each month to perform a full backup

If I run a single task and indicated 5 points of restoration , the first job is FULL but the following are incremental and we do not want .
Using the mode - INCREMENTAL and checking the box
· ___DAY ACTIVE FULL BACKUP ( BACKUP JOB the same day )

The option right click on the job and run full backup does not admit because it is programmed to automatically Veeam

I think the following settings should meet your expectations:





Thanks.

[adrianIDC]

Ok thanks Erenim, I will set a task to check.

Anyway , if I set one of that and throw it manually after performing the first full backup ..... it makes incremental .

Expected - active full is performed only once per day (unless you explicitly select the Active Full command from the shortcut menu). Every subsequent manual run during the same day will be incremental.

Thank you both for your help. Now tasks are executed correctly and have achieved my goal .

Thank you !
