Start time adjustment RRS feed

  • Question

  • We have WHS doing backups, but have been unable to get it start reliably at a give time.  We currently have it set to start at 12:00pm.  It would be better to start it at 12:10pm, but the system does not allow adjustment of the start minute, only the hour.  How to resolve?

    Thanks

    Lee

  • Hi Lee,
    performing backups at exact times is not a plan in the concept of Windows Home Server. Instead the local client attempts an backup a certain time afer the last did run, within the Backup time window.

    A workaround would be to create a scheduled task containing a call of backupengine.exe -a (in C:\Program Files\Windows Home Server).
