Im using NBU 7.5 on Oracle Solaris 10
I want to be able to have my Full level backup policies that I perform once a month run on the last day of the month or last friday of the month... How do I set it up to run like this in regard to the policy schedule... Do I have to exclude every day in the month so it run on that last day available??
thanks

just select the following in your Policy Schedule:
Attribute tab > Schedule Type > Calendar
Calendar Schedule tab > Recurring Days of the Month > Last Day
-or-
Calendar Schedule tab > Recurring Week Days > Last Friday
no need to exclude all other days of the month

In addition to wr's reply you also need the correct schedule windows:
For last Friday - you need a window open every Friday (maybe 00:10 to 23:50)
For Last Day - you need a Window open every day of the week (maybe 00:10 to 23:50)
Also bear in mind that if you want the backup to run on Friday night then as a calendar schedule comes into effect just after midnight on the day you probably actuall want Last Saturday of the Month and starting at 00:10 as 00:10 on a Saturday is what you might think of as Friday night!
Hope this helps
