Hi All,
I am wondering if there is a way to schedule a Full Backup (Acrive or Synthaatic) to be every 10 days ? instead of weekly or monthly bases. My goal is to have daily incrementals and full backup every 10 days so I played with all schedule options but couldn't achieve it so I feel I am missing something or this is not possible on veeam as I used to do it in other vendors.
Let me know if this configuration is possible in VBR.
Thanks

Hi
Unfortunately, at this point, scheduling an occasional full is not as granular as you're needing it to be.
You can request a feature enhancement in the forums. Maybe the ability will be added in a future release.

The only way to do this is to run a powershell script to create the Full in a Windows scheduled task every 10 days.

Sure...no problem.

Do you have a kind of script or a guide to do that coz I am not that good in Powershell scripts.
I appreciate your support.
Thanks

I don't...sorry. But, I think you would need to use the New-vbrFullBackupOptions cmdlet as shown in the Veeam PoSH reference.

There was another similar post a few months ago. See if this works for you

Do not use the VBRComputerJob cmdlet though...that is for an Agent backup job. Unless of course it is for an Agent backup.

Thanks for your guidance bro.
I found a detailed article that explained it step by step in below link :

It’s an old blog post but I think that’s what I am trying to reach and I will give it a try.
Thanks again for your help.

Prefect...yes. Tim is a reliable resource. Use the Active.ps1 script in a Windows scheduled task as I (&Tim) shared above.

That is a great post by Tim for sure. Glad you found this and shared it too as I had forgotten about it. 😂
