Schedule is correct - next run time is not

[digitlman]

I have 2 jobs that run on Mondays and Tuesdays respectively, but the "Next Run Time" both show the same date (A Saturday!).

WTF?

I removed the schedule from both tasks, finished, went back in and re-added, same issue.

Do I need to delete the whole job and start again?

Sounds like this

Issue 9
Reversed incremental backup mode jobs scheduled to run on specific days only will also start on synthetic full backup day (as set under incremental backup mode options in the advanced job settings). Due to the same bug, Replication and VM Copy jobs will always start on Saturday (which is the default day for synthetic full backup).

Summary of known v6 issues

I didn't think so when I read that, since there's only one job on this VM, and it is for the Reverse INc.

I went in and changed the job to incremental, unchecked the enable full synth, then moved back to reverse incremental.

Will this fix it, or have I screwed up the job? I just want a "full" backup like I had in v5.

Should do, the issue has been fixed in Patch 2 according to that page so open a support ticket to get the patch

Case opened!

Brilliant find, thanks so much.

Have a similar issue here, Reverse Inc jobs scheduled to run 'on week-days only' but then insisting on running on a Saturday, regardless of what I do with the schedule, even forcing it to run only on one day of the week. Have gone into the Advanced job settings, set the job temporarily to Forward Inc, UNtick the box to say Synthetic Fulls on Saturdays and then select back to Reverse Inc. The 'Next run' date is now correctly saying the following Monday.

Sounds like I could do with the patch update here!

I have backup jobs that I have set to run "on these days" say at 10:00PM and I set M,T,W,Th and the next schedule run times sets for 10pm on Saturday even though Sat. is not selected. I have tried selecting alternate dates, disabling and re-enabling and nothing the jobs set for Saturday. Yes time, date and year are correct on my OS.
