Can copy jobs run continuously?

Post by tom11011 »

I keep having to tweak my copy job interval.

Right now I have the job set to run every 3 days because the vm that it copies can take that long to copy from datacenter A to datacenter B.

But sometimes the copy job can complete in a day or two depending on how much data needs to be moved. When that happens, there are 1 to 2 days wasted when a new copy could be running but doesn't because the interval is set for 3 days.

The only thing that I can imagine is a post job script that inactivate and reactivate the job scheduler. That way the job wait for the next restore point and transport it.
Not ideal but a usable way.
