Modifying scheduled jobs

I have read others that have this problem. I have put up with it for quite awhile but I just want to know if perhaps 11.5 SP2 may finally fix it. When I was using an older version, you could modify a scheduled job and it would change from incremental to full, but you could modify it back to incremental. That option was lost when I upgraded, and I have put up with it by making changes only on Fridays. I am running 11.5 SP1. Is the problem still there with SP2? If so, they really need to change it back.

Thanks
 
Wondering after you did your modification, did you click on "Start" icon on top, then OK security setting, then another page popup where you can do your preflight check and stuff...OK that to confirm repackage the backup job.

I did those and no problem.

I click on the Start, OK, security, etc. as you state. It will take the changes, etc. But it will always make the job a Full backup even if it is in the middle of the week like today(Wednesday). In the past I could then modify that job to be incremental instead of Full. I can modify jobs in the future OK. For Ex: I could make Thursday to be Full or make Friday incremental. But of course that's just an example. I just cannot modify the current day as it gives me an error that states "Selection of the first day is not allowed". Now this is not a new job, but when I modify it, it seems that it becomes a new job to ARCserve. Is there some way to make ARCserve not think it is a "new" job.

Thanks,
 
I know I put this in ARCserve back-up and possibly needed to put it in BrightStor back-up. Anyway, I have 11.5 SP3 and plan to upgrade. I went back into CA's website to see if this is fixed with the update and found this in the knowledgebase:
which points to a v11.1 fix and also found this:

with no fix, so I assume that this problem is still occurring. I can post the problem as I have support, but who knows if I get a response.

Another note, is there anyway to move a post to a different forum. I tried to find a way, but could not find it.
