Hi All,
Can you help me with the configuration on backup exec 2012 with my schedule below ?
Daily Differential backup ( 8 tapes for 2 weeks) : Monday - Thursday ( first week) and Monday - Thursday ( second week) : in this way i can roll back up to 2 weeks
Weekly full backup ( 4 tapes) ( if a weekly backup happen at same time with Monthly backup, it should be superseded)
Monthly backup ( 12 tapes/year) : i would like to do monthly back at the last friday of month which will replace weekly full backup.
Thanks very much for your time.

1) Define 4 media sets
Daily - OPP = 13 days
Weekly - OPP = 3 weeks
Monthly - OPP = 11 month
2) Create a backup job.
3) Edit the job and change the schedule of the full backup to run on whichever day you want the weekly full to run and target the weekly media set
4) While editing the job, change the job method of the daily incremental to differential and target the daily media set.
5) Click on the Add Job button and add a monthly full backup targeting the monthly dataset.
In BE 2012, if the start time of the jobs are the same, the less frequent job will superceed the more frequent job.
