Blocked Hours
Hi there
Is there a way so set something like blocked hours in NetBackup 6.5. That would be a time frame where no Backups should or could run, regardless of manual, scheduled or retry. I'm asking f...
your window in the policy is merely the START time (not the run time).
So say right now your window is from 8 pm to 6 am - then the job can START anywhere in that window, and if set to do retries - it will retry again if the window is still open.
where if you change the window to 8 pm to 11 pm - then the job can START in that window (make sure this is large enough to get actually let the job start). Now if the job dies at 3 am - it will not re-run because the window is closed ( and you will get the error as such on the job).
and even though your window is from 8 pm to 11 pm - once the job starts it will run to completion or failure even if the window closes.
