Next Rotation Set - HP BB118BV - StorageWorks Data Protector Express Package User's Manual & Technical Reference

NOTE:
You can create a backup job to run as frequently as every minute or as rarely as once a year. To best
protect your data, select every day of the week in which new and important data is generated (i.e.,
every business day).
Initial Rotation Job
The initial rotation job is always at the highest level. This is the instance of a job with the longest retention
period. In the Daily Append example, the backup job will automatically schedule and configure the
Weekly Set 1 Rotation to run first and back up the data to the Weekly Set 1 Media folder. You can see
which set is scheduled next in the Next rotation set column or in the Details pane.
In the following example there are three scheduled jobs, two of which also have a copy policy defined.
TIP:
If the Next rotation set column is not displayed in the Detail pane, right click in the column heading and
select it from the pull-down list.
Rotation Sets
The next and current rotation sets are listed in the info pane of a selected backup job, and as columns in
the Detail view. These fields are updated each time the schedule property is updated. The next rotation
set is calculated at the end of a backup job, only if the job was run by the scheduler or from the Run next
schedule command. It is never advanced if it is run manually, using the Run command.
