In the schedule itself there is a “frequency” definition.   I haven’t done it 
but I assume if you allow it to run all day and set the frequency to 4 hours it 
would do multiple backups.

Note that the 4 hours would be from the previous backup so if exact time is 
important you might want to set up a user backup run from cron instead of 
relying on the schedule itself.   (i.e. If your first backup normally runs at 1 
PM but has issues and doesn’t run until 2 PM the next one would run at 6 PM 
rather than 5 PM and each subsequent backup would run 4 hours later.)

Subject: [Veritas-bu] How do I schedule a backup to run every 4 hours?

I’m currently running NetBackup 7.6.0.1 on Redhat Linux.   Is there a way 
schedule a backup schedule to run multiple times a day or do I have to create 
multiple schedules with different start time windows?
Thanks in advance..
