The scheduler behavior, in case the event occurs but the condition (or any of multiple conditions) is

not met is defined by the Task start conditions (p. 112) backup option.

What-ifs

 What if an event occurs (and a condition, if any, is met) while the previous task run has not

completed?

The event will be ignored.

 What if an event occurs while the scheduler is waiting for the condition required by the

previous event?

The event will be ignored.

 What if the condition is not met for a very long time?

If delaying a backup is getting risky, you can force the condition (tell the users to log off) or run

the task manually. To automatically handle this situation, you can set the time interval after

which the task will run regardless of the condition.

5.1 Daily schedule

Daily schedule is effective in Windows and Linux operating systems.

To specify a daily schedule

In the Schedule area, select the appropriate parameter as follows:

Every: <...> day(s)

Set up the certain number of days you want the task to be run. For example, if

you set Every 2 day(s), the task will be started on every other day.

In the During the day execute the task... area, select one of the following:

Once at: <...> Set up the time at which the task will be run once.

Every: <...>

From: <...> Until: <...>

Set up how many times the task will be restarted during the specified time

interval. For example, setting the task frequency to Every 1 hour From

10:00:00 AM until 10:00:00 PM allows the task to run 12 times: from 10 AM

to 10 PM during one day.

In the Effective... area, set the following settings:

From: <...> Set up a date when this schedule will be enabled (an effective date). If this

check box is cleared, the task will be started on the nearest day and time you

have specified above.

To: <...> Set up a date when this schedule will be disabled. If this check box is cleared,

the task will be run for an indefinite number of days.

Advanced scheduling settings (p. 171) are available only for machines registered on Acronis Backup &

Recovery 10 Management Server. To specify these settings, click Change in the Advanced settings

area.

All the settings you made are displayed in the Result field at the bottom of the window.

Examples

"Simple" daily schedule

Run the task every day at 6PM.

The schedule's parameters are thus set up as follows.

1 2 ... 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 168 ... 380 381
