Scheduling backups: create backup schedules

Scheduling backups > Specify SQL Server > Select backup type and database > Create backup schedules > File settings > Processing and encryption settings > Review summary

This topic describes the wizard page for specifying schedules for each of the backup types you have selected.

Each backup type must have one or more schedules. The schedules define the time and frequency of the backups. For example, a backup type could have two schedules; one to perform the backups daily, and another to perform them weekly.

To create a schedule, click the tab for the backup type for which you want to create the schedule, and click Create. The Schedule Editor is displayed for you to define the schedule.

To edit an existing schedule, select the schedule in the appropriate tab, and click Edit; to delete an existing schedule, select the schedule and click Delete.
