Scheduling by specific dates

A task can run on specific dates rather than follow a recurring schedule, and specific dates can be added to a recurring schedule. Use the Specific dates run day option to schedule specific dates for a task to run.

To schedule a task on specific dates

  1. In the NetBackup Administration Console, expand NetBackup Management > Policies.

  2. Select the policy name in the left pane.

  3. Double-click the schedule name in the Details pane.

  4. In the Calendar Schedule tab, select Specific Dates.

  5. Use one of the following methods to indicate a date:

    • Click the date in the calendar.

    • Click New. Enter the month, day, and year in the Date Selection dialog box. Click OK.

    The date appears in the Specific Dates list.

  6. To remove a date, select it in the calendar schedule list and click Delete.

  7. After the dates are selected, select another tab to make changes or click OK to save and close the dialog box.
