Enabling Backup Schedule

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

veeamconfig schedule enable --jobid <job_id>

or

veeamconfig schedule enable --jobname <job_name>

where:

  • <job_id> — ID of the backup job for which you want to enable the schedule. You should look up the job 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 job 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 job at any time. To learn more, see Disabling Backup Schedule.
