You want to back up your server’s critical files every day.
You want the first backup of each day to be full and to run at 01:00 AM.
You want the backups during working hours to be differential and to run every hour from 8:00 AM through 5:00 PM.
You want to include a creation date in the name of each backup file.
In this scenario, you need to create two backup plans as follows:
When creating the first backup plan, specify ServerFiles([DATE]) as the archive name, select the Name backup files using the archive name... check box, select Full as the backup type, and schedule the backups to run every day at 01:00:00 AM.
When creating the second backup plan, specify the same settings as in the first backup plan, but select Differential as the backup type and schedule the backups as follows:
Run the task: Daily
Every: 1 Hour(s)
From: 08:00:00 AM
Until: 05:01:00 PM
Result:
The full backup of January 31, 2011, will be stored as ServerFiles(1.31.2011).tib.
The 10 differential backups of January 31, 2011, will be stored as ServerFiles(1.31.2011)2.tib, ServerFiles(1.31.2011)3.tib, and so on up to ServerFiles(1.31.2011)11.tib.
The following day, February 1, the backups will start with the full backup ServerFiles(2.1.2011).tib. The differential backups will start with ServerFiles(2.1.2011)2.tib.
