Full backup on next run

[withanh]

Is there a way to schedule the next occurrence of a job to be a full backup? I know that I can right click a job and tell it to do a full backup now. I also know that I can edit the job properties to tell it to do a full backup on Fridays, but then I'd have to edit the jobs again and unset the full backup on Fridays. I really just want to tell it to do a full the next time it runs.

Thanks!

Hi Darhl, no unfortunately this is not possible right now.

Thanks Anton, just wasn't sure if I was missing something. I don't suppose that's in a future release? v5???

[Gostev]

No - because this is the first time we hear this request...

[withanh]

OK then, please make it an official request

Add me onto the offical request. Being able to manage the full backups easier would be a nice feature. I also wouldn't mind a powershell cmdlet that would run a full backup instead of just starting the job.

Please, I need this feature too.
