Hi!
I have a set of VMs which are being backed up. I have setup two backup jobs containing same VMs, but using two different backup targets. I would like to run those tasks one after another, so I do not get "Failed" message when one job tries to backup VM which is being backed up by another. Is there a way to wait for release of VM? Or chain backup jobs, so that only when first finishes - second starts? Or the only way to do that is to use Windows Scheduler and use C:\Program Files\Veeam\Backup and Replication\Veeam.Backup.Manager.exe backup xxxx?

Re: Multiple backups on same set of VMs?
Hi, congrats with post number 20000 in Veeam Backup and Replication forum.
Yes, many people chain backup jobs to achieve this (search forum for daisy chain). It might be a bit simpler to schedule a single PowerShell script with multiple consequent Start-VBRJob cmdlets starting different jobs though (script example can also be found on this forum).
Thanks.
