Is it possible to configure backup jobs to run as each one finishes rather than trying to estimate when a job will finish before strting another.
In other words, if I have two jobs can I setup the schedule that will start the second job only when the first job finishes?
When we talk to support they keep telling us that jobs are scheduled based on times rather than events. In other words they are saying that if job 1 starts at 8:00 and is estimated to run for 2 hours then the second job should be scheduled to start at 10:00 or later. That works fine assuming that your backups will always run in the same timeframe, however reality is that backup volume, network traffic etc. can greatly affect the time to completion.
Surely there has to be a way to stop and start jobs based on events.
Thanks
