12.5 monthly backup at last friday of the month

[EcksteinH]

I use the media maximization with 3 jobs. 2 jobs are diff. backups, 1 job is full backup.
The media maximization works well for daily and weekly backups. But the monthly backup is not satisfactorily because the diff.-backups run the monthly backup on the last friday of the month an the full-backup runs an the last day of the month the monthly backup.

Is it possible to bring arcserve to do the monthly backup of the fullbackup also at the last friday of the month?

In this case you need to create only one rotation (normal of GFS) job instead of several custom jobs. This way ARCServe knows of the relationship between full and differential backup jobs and will also use the media maximization feature the way you want it.

I can not take the three jobs together to one job, because i have to differentiate between differential und full backup jobs. I need from some Servers a daily full backup and from athors just a differential backup because it would take too much time to do a full backup from all servers.
