kingjesse2 Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 (edited) Quick question for everyone. Here at my office, we like to make sure our backups are secure, but we are not a very large office. Our setup right now is to backup all 10 of our clients to one hard drive every day. Then separately we back up the clients to what we call the "Rotate" Drives (A and . Each week, my supervisor takes one of the drives home, and returns and plugs in whichever she did have. Thus, there is always only one of the Rotate drives in the office at the same (In case our office burns down or something). My question is, can I set retrospect to back up the clients every day for a week, but then skip a week of backups, then repeat? Oh and we are using both Proactive and Scheduled backups. For example, let's say in any given 4 week period, I want Rotate A to backup the clients daily in week 1 and 3, and Rotate B to backup the clients daily in week 2 and 4. Is that possible? We had this set up in Retrospect 6 but in 8 Im not sure.... Edited June 26, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 You can setup a backup script to run every other week. You can basically do the same thing you did in version 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingjesse2 Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 I dont just want it to run once every other week, I want it to run every day on every other week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impala Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 I guess you are doing this so they are prompted by retrospect to rotate the media? Otherwise you could have one script that runs every day with two Media Sets, and rotate them at your convenience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
