    Using notify scripts, notification timing is limited by execution timing of each scripts. For example, if you implement mail notification using bpend_notify, notification will be raised soon after each backups. You can not control exactly when it raise. Cron is simple and smart enough for your needs, I think.

Hi Roland,

 

You could try customising the backup_exit_notify to send an email after the weekly backup has completed.

backup_exit_notify is run every time any backup is completed.
