That will happen by itself if you let the built-in scheduler have its way. # PCs that are always or often on the network can be backed up after # hours, to reduce PC, network and server load during working hours. For # each PC a count of consecutive good pings is maintained. Once a PC has # at least $Conf{BlackoutGoodCnt} consecutive good pings it is subject # to "blackout" and not backed up during hours and days specified by # $Conf{BlackoutWeekDays}, $Conf{BlackoutHourBegin} and # $Conf{BlackoutHourEnd}. I usually add new machines as I leave for the day so the first run will be after hours, then subsequent runs will avoid the Blackout (workday) times by the mechanism above. -- Les Mikesell le...@fu... |
