How to schedule multiple (incremental) backups per day?

Post by MickyRoth »

I am doing a full backup of a virtual maschine to a RDX drive once a night.

And an incremental backup in a seperate backup job at 12:00 AM to a local HDD.
How can i schedule this incremental job twice a day (e.g. 10:00 AM and 2:00 pm)?
(i know there is a "continueous mode", but i like to have defined times for the backups...)

Hi Micky

Use a combination of Periodically every 4 hours and allowed backup window:

Backup would start at 0am, 4am, 8am, 12pm, 4pm, 8pm. But because there is the denied backup window, the start of the backup process will be moved to the next permitted timeslot at 10am and 2pm.

Best,
