Examples
"One day in the week" schedule
Run the task every Friday at 10PM, starting from a certain date (say 05/14/2009) and ending after six
months.
The schedule's parameters are thus set up as follows.
1. Every: 1 week(s) on: Fri.
2. Once at: 10:00:00 PM.
3. Effective:
From: 05/13/2009. The task will be started on the nearest Friday at 10 PM.
To: 11/13/2009. The task will be performed for the last time on this date, but the task itself will
still be available in the Tasks view after this date. (If this date were not a Friday, the task would be
last performed on the last Friday preceding this date.)
This schedule is widely used when creating a custom backup scheme. The "One day in the week"-like
schedule is added to the full backups, while the incremental backups are scheduled to be performed
on workdays. For more details, see the Full and incremental backups plus cleanup example in the
Custom backup scheme (p. 132) section.
"Workdays" schedule
Run the task every week on workdays: from Monday through Friday. During a workday, the task
starts only once at 9 PM.
The schedule's parameters are thus set up as follows.
1. Every: 1 week(s) on: <Workdays> - selecting the <Workdays> check box automatically selects the
corresponding check boxes (Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, and Fri), and leaves the remaining ones
unchanged.
2. Once at: 09:00:00 PM.
3. Effective:
From: empty. If you have created the task, say on Monday at 11:30 AM, the task will be started
on the same day at 9 PM. If the task was created, say on Friday after 9 PM, then it will be started
for the first time on the nearest workday (Monday in our example) at 9 PM.
End date: empty. The task will be restarted for an indefinite number of weeks.
This schedule is widely used when creating a custom backup scheme. The "Workdays"-like schedule is
added to the incremental backups, while the full backup is scheduled to be performed one day in the
week. For more details, see the Full and incremental backups plus cleanup example in the Custom
backup scheme (p. 132) section.
