Enabling Backup Schedule

To run a backup policy automatically upon the defined schedule, you must enable the schedule for the policy. Use the following command:

veeamconfig schedule enable --jobid <job_id>

or

veeamconfig schedule enable --jobname <job_name>

where:

  • <job_id> — ID of the backup policy for which you want to enable the schedule. You should look up the policy ID in advance, for example, with the veeamconfig job list command. To learn more, see Viewing List of Backup Policies.
  • <job_name> — name of the backup policy for which you want to enable the schedule.

For example:

user@wrk01:~$ veeamconfig schedule enable --jobid 4849a3ae-1935-4969-98a3-d8acd2f6c73f

You can disable the schedule for the policy at any time. To learn more, see Disabling Backup Schedule.
