Policy start frequency with different retension

[aBaron]

I've got 6 policies with 2 schedules each with different retension (27 days and 51 weeks) and frequency (1 week and 4 weeks).What is the easiest method / command to set all policies to the same Start frequency and retension.
Now it happens that, because of a backup failure, policies won't start with the same Retension settings and thus jobs will start after each other. I could use a calendar schedule but because of the maintenance that's not what i'm looking for.

 Make one schedual then copy it to another one

Zippy gives the easiest solution. No problem going to the GUI and making the schedule with the frequency and retentions you desire. Then right click on theschedule and select copy. it's pretty easy.
