And 268400 is the technote reference to which the interested reader can refer for the details. > frequency is set longer than your backup window or you will start two > (or more) jobs within that period.

Common solution for any user who has faced a more-than-once-daily requirement, and well-documented in the SAG--at least for the last couple of releases. > network delay (for whatever reason.)

I'm a huge fan of max windows, every-day windows, and spreading the load by schedulng fulls on a frequency requirement rather than specific days of the week. That's often a tough sell, of course, and business-requirements dictate whether it's feasible. Easier to sell when first formalizing SLAs and redesigning from scratch, but that's another topic. _______________________________________________ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
