I have a MSSQL policy configured with three Automatic schedules and three Application schedules.
Daily Schedule:
Automatic schedule = 7pm to 8am.
Application schedule = 7pm to 8am with a retention of 1 week
Weekly Schedule:
Automatic schedule = 7pm Friday to 8am Monday every week with exception of the last Friday of each month.
Application schedule = 7pm Friday to 8am Monday every week with exception of the last Friday of each month with retention of 1 month.
Monthly Schedule:
Automatic schedule = 7pm Friday to 8am Monday on the last Friday of each month.
Application schedule = 7pm Friday to 8am Monday on the last Friday of each month with retention of 3 months.
They appear in the following order in the policy:
Daily
Monthly
Weekly
The daily runs OK and retains data for the intended 1 week.
However as the weekly and monthly application schedules are open at the same time is seems to always pick the monthly schedule (the first that appears in the list). So when the weekly backup runs it is retained for 3 months instead of the intended 1 month.
I have searched and searched and cannot find any hints as to how this should be configured so that I can have all three schedules in the same policy. Is this possible? If so how should it be confgured?
Thanks in advance for any help.
