Hi,
I'd like to know if it is possible to reschedule or maybe skip day using ANY command prompt utility in job (that runs all days during week) that is CUSTOM only. Exceptions in days/time can be made only in rotation jobs. I read the cabatch readme and it is usable only for new jobs as I understand it good. For example, I have job that runs MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI and I want to skip THU in custom job. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
 
When you custom schedule your backup job you can still exclude days by choosing the repeat method to run all days of the week, except for Saturday, Sunday and Thursday for your case,

regards
 
Thanks Cyklops,
BUT I want to exclude for eg. THU only ONCE and it would be better to do this by setting which date I want to exclude. This is for eg. Christmas holiday, the first week I want to exclude THU, the second week I want to exclude FRI in case not being at work two weeks. I hope you understand what I mean. Is is possible?
 
I found it.
ca_qmgr - I can run it with parameter changing the execution date. Thanks
