Backup > Configuring a backup job > Setting the recurrence schedule

Setting the recurrence schedule

The Recurrence Schedule Selection page lets you indicate whether the job should be done on demand — at this moment — or at a future time. To schedule a future occurrence, you must define the start time, recurrence pattern, and range of recurrence.

To set the recurrence schedule:
1
On the Recurrence Schedule Selection page, select from the options described in the following table.

This will be an on demand job …

There is no need to define a schedule. The job runs on demand.

Start Time

The time of day at which to run the job.

Recurrence Pattern

In this section, you establish how often the report should be generated. There are five options within this section:

Daily: The daily option can be scheduled to run the report every weekday or every x number of days.
Weekly: vRanger can be configured to run on weekly intervals, from every week to every 99 weeks. The day of the week on which to run reports can be configured.
Monthly: The monthly option offers the following configurations:
Day [x] of every [y] month:

x can be any value from 1 to 31. This value determines the day of the month on which the job occurs.

y can be any value from 1 to 99. This value determines the monthly interval — for example, every two months sets the job to run every other month.

The [f] [d] of every [y] month(s):

f can be either: first, second, third, fourth or last.

d can be: weekday, weekend day, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.

y can be any value from 1 to 99. This value determines the monthly interval — for example, every two months sets the report to run every other month.

Yearly: The yearly option offers the following configurations:
Every [m] [x]:

m is any month of the year. This value determines the month of the year in which the report occurs.

x can be any value from 1 to 31. This value determines the day of the month on which the report occurs.

The [f] [d] of [m]:

f can be either: first, second, third, fourth, or last.

d can be: day, weekday, weekend day, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.

m is any month of the year. This value determines the month of the year in which the report occurs.

Interval: The interval option lets you select the number of days, hours, and minutes that should pass between backup jobs.

Range of Recurrence

Select the starting date and ending date:

No end date: The job recurs until it is stopped.
End after: Select the number of occurrences.
End by: Select the date by which to end the recurrence.

Restore

The vRanger restore process

vRanger offers three main options for restoring from backup: restoring the full server from a repository, restoring a file or files from a repository, or restoring the server or file from a manifest. For more information, see the following topics:

If you are restoring a VMware® VM, be aware of the following regarding the destination that you target for a restore:

Full restore

Using vRanger, recovery of an entire virtual machine (VM) — or resource pool, VMware vSphere® vApp(s)™, and so on — is a simple process. A full restore returns the protected objects to the state as of the point in time at which the backup was performed. If the savepoint is for a differential backup, the restore process first restores the matched full backup, and then merges the data from the selected differential archive. For incremental savepoints, the full backup is restored along with each incremental archive taken between the full and the selected savepoint.

When restoring a parent object, such as a vApp, vRanger restores the VM data and the parent object’s metadata, allowing you to restore the entire object state and settings and the actual VM data.

During the normal restore process, information is pulled from the vRanger database to complete the restore job. If the vRanger server is lost, and the database cannot be recovered or is otherwise unavailable, you can reinstall a fresh version of vRanger and import the repository to regain access to your backups.
