Enter the number of attempts to run the job and define time intervals between them. In the Automatic retry section, define whether Veeam Backup & Replication or Veeam Agent for Linux (depending on the selected job mode) must attempt to run the backup job again if the job fails for some reason.You will be able to choose whether Veeam Backup & Replication must start the chained job as well. If you start the first job manually, Veeam Backup & Replication will display a notification.

If you define permitted hours for the job, after the denied interval is over, the job will start immediately and then run by the defined schedule.įor example, you have configured a job to run with a 2-hour interval and defined permitted hours from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.For example, if you configure to run a job with a 4-hour interval, the job will start at 12:00 AM, 4:00 AM, 8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, 4:00 PM and so on. The defined interval always starts at 12:00 AM.In the Start time within an hour field, specify the exact time when the job must start.Ī repeatedly run job is started by the following rules:
