Schedule resource
Configuration directives for the Schedule resource. Every directive is listed; value types and defaults are noted where the source provides them.
Connect
Section titled “Connect”Connect = <Connect-overrides> <Date-time-specification>
The Connect directive defines when a Client should connect to a Director. You may specify multiple Connect directives within a Schedule resource. If you do, they will all be applied (i.e. multiple schedules). If you have two Connect directives that start at the same time, two connections will start at the same time (well, within one second of each other). It is not recommended to have multiple connections at the same time.
Connect-options are specified as: keyword=value where the keyword is MaxConnectTime and the value is as defined on the respective directive formats for the Job resource. You may specify multiple Connect-options on one Connect directive by separating them with one or more spaces or by separating them with a trailing comma. For example:
MaxConnectTime=<time-spec>
specifies how much time the connection will be attempt and active.
Enabled
Section titled “Enabled”Enabled = <yes|no>
This directive allows you to enable or disable the Schedule resource.
Name = <name>
The name of the schedule being defined. The Name directive is required.
Run = <Job-overrides> <Date-time-specification>
The Run directive defines when a Job is to be run, and what overrides if any to apply. You may specify multiple Run directives within a Schedule resource. If you do, they will all be applied (i.e. multiple schedules). If you have two Run directives that start at the same time, two Jobs will start at the same time (well, within one second of each other). The Job-overrides permit overriding the Level, the Storage, the Messages, and the Pool specifications provided in the Job resource. In addition, the FullPool, the IncrementalPool, and the DifferentialPool specifications permit overriding the Pool specification according to what backup Job Level is in effect.
By the use of overrides, you may customize a particular Job. For example, you may specify a Messages override for your Incremental backups that outputs messages to a log file, but for your weekly or monthly Full backups, you may send the output by email by using a different Messages override.
Job-overrides are specified as: keyword=value where the keyword is Level, Storage, Messages, Pool, FullPool, DifferentialPool, or IncrementalPool, and the value is as defined on the respective directive formats for the Job resource. You may specify multiple Job-overrides on one Run directive by separating them with one or more spaces or by separating them with a trailing comma. For example:
Level=Full is all files in the FileSet whether or not they have changed.
Schedule
Section titled “Schedule”Start of the Schedule directives. No Schedule resource is required. If no Schedule is used, the Client will connect automatically to the Director at the startup.
