Full and incremental backup plus cleanup
With the following scheme, the archive will consist of weekly full backups and daily incremental
backups. We further require that a full backup begin only after all users have logged off.

Full backup: Schedule: Weekly, every Friday, at 10:00 PM
Full backup: Conditions: User is logged off
Incremental: Schedule: Weekly, every workday, at 9:00 PM
Also, let all backups older than one year be deleted from the archive, and let the cleanup be
performed upon creating a new backup.

Retention rules: Delete backups older than 12 months
Apply the rules: After backing up
By default, a one-year-old full backup will not be deleted until all incremental backups that depend
on it become subject to deletion too. For more information, see Retention rules (p. 38).

Monthly full, weekly differential, and daily incremental backups plus cleanup
This example demonstrates the use of all options available in the Custom scheme.
Suppose that we need a scheme that will produce monthly full backups, weekly differential backups,
and daily incremental backups. Then the backup schedule can look as follows.
and daily incremental backups. Then the backup schedule can look as follows.
Full backup: Schedule: Monthly, every Last Sunday of the month, at 9:00 PM
Incremental: Schedule: Weekly, every workday, at 7:00 PM
Differential: Schedule: Weekly, every Saturday, at 8:00 PM
Further, we want to add conditions that have to be satisfied for a backup task to start. This is set up in
the Conditions fields for each backup type.
the Conditions fields for each backup type.
Full backup: Conditions: Location available
Incremental: Conditions: User is logged off
Differential: Conditions: User is idle
As a result, a full backup—originally scheduled at 9:00 PM—may actually start later: as soon as the
backup location becomes available. Likewise, backup tasks for incremental and differential backups
will wait until all users are logged off and users are idle, respectively.

Finally, we create retention rules for the archive: let us retain only backups that are no older than six
months, and let the cleanup be performed after each backup task and also on the last day of every
