4.4.3 Scheduling
The Scheduler window allows you to specify the online backup task execution settings.
You have to specify the credentials (the name and password of the user who owns the task being
scheduled); otherwise no scheduled execution will be available.
To specify the credentials:
Enter the user name in the appropriate field. By default this field displays the current user name.
Enter the password in the appropriate field. If you do not enter the password or enter an
incorrect password, the program will notify you that the credentials are not valid.
Choose one of the following backup frequencies:
Daily (p. 18) - the task will be executed once a day or more frequently
Weekly (p. 18) - the task will be executed once a week or several times a week on the selected
days
Monthly (p. 19) - the task will be executed once a month or several times a month on the
selected dates
Next choose when to start online backup:
At a specified time. Specify the time in the corresponding field.
Upon event. Choose the event you need: At user logon, At user logoff, At system startup or At
system shutdown. To run a backup only at the first occurrence of the event, select the Once a
day only box.
Every () hours. Choose backup periodicity from the dropdown list (for, example, every 2 hours).
This setting is available only for daily backups.
