Feature request: Scheduling time of health check

Post by wxfpdc »

Backup -> Edit Job -> Advanced Settings -> Maintenance -> Storage-level corruption guard
Right now, health check is done after first backup during selected day, so if backup is on 8 am, it will run intensive long check at that time

Is it possible to add option to set time during the day, of the health check ?
For example 8 pm or 20:00, so that it can be scheduled after "work time"

Thank you

Hello wxfpdc,

Health check activity currently relies on backup job schedule (it's performed as a part of backup job run), so it's not possible to specify different schedule. I've noted your post as improvement request. Thanks!

Thanks for clarification.
I do most jobs with weekly active fulls ... is the health check needed in that case?
If not, I could "tweak" the reports by disabling health checks :wink:

If the risk of losing six days of incremental backups due to sudden silent data corruption is acceptable, you may disable it, yes. I'm not saying this will happen, but this might happen, so try carefully considering risks when making decisions.

Thanks
