Advanced Storage Options

Hi there..

I'm trying to alter our backup to disk jobs, I suspect I can get improved backup performance.

I want to clear the "Create Synthetic Full Backups" flag, which I can find within the CDomBackupTargetOptions object:
(Get-VBRJob -name "jobname").BackupTargetOptions.TansformFullToSyntethic (sic )

Where I'm having problems is in altering the Active Full backup settings. The "Create Active Full Backups" flag is already set in the job, but I want to change it from monthly to weekly and I cannot find the value to change to effect this. All I can see is the .BackupTargetOptions.FullBackupDays where I can change which day of the week it runs on.

But I want to change it from monthly to weekly and I cannot find the value to change to effect this.

Try this code:

Code: Select all

$Job = GEt-VBRJob -Name "Name of your Job"
$Options = $Job.GetOptions()
$Options.BackupTargetOptions.FullBackupScheduleKind = "Daily"
$Job.SetOptions($Options)

Thanks.

Thanks... that's definitely it. I had tried to use "weekly", which definitely didn't work.
