Guys
Windows 2000 server,Brightstor version 9
I have a pre-job script to be run on my backup, and in the live environment this takes two hours to run on average. The job in Test only takes nine minutes. At the moment a scheduled task is run, then the timed backup job, obviously this does not allow for over-runs.
I've set up my pre-job in the test environment and it runs immediately after the script finishes,which is all hunky dorey. However when I set the delay to 180 mintues, Arcserve throws a bit of a wobbly.
It accepts the time, but when you go back in to the properties of the job, it lists it as 100 minutes. Double click the field to modify it again, and it reverts to 180 minutes. The upshot of this is that I do not know how long the delay is actually for, and I do not want to risk the backup starting in my live environment before the script has finished.
Have any of you seen this issue before, and can you shed any light?
Cheers
Allen
