HI there
Snapcenter Version 4.3.1P2
MS SQL 2016 on Server2016
I have been trying to schedule a deferred verification on an SQL resource group. The group has 3 policies attached
1: A logs only back up runs every 30mins on the 15th and 45th Min
2: A full back up with logs and no verify runs every 2 hours on the odd hours 1,3,5 etc
3: A full backup with logs with remote verify runs every 6 hours on the 00, 06, 12, 18
In the Gui I have set the verification schedule to every 6 hours on the 01, 07,13,19
Once setup I can see all the backup jobs in the scheduler screen and 1 to 3 run on time, but as expected 3 does not execute the verify. When the time for the verify comes nothing happens, there are no jobs started and after 1-2 mins the schedule changes to the next run time in 6 hours with no errors that I can find in any of the logs etc.
I have tried setting the verify schedule to the same times as policy 3 i.e 00, 06 etc and have the same outcome, backup runs but no verify is undertaken.
if i invoke a manual backup using policy 3 and select verify it works fine.
if I alter the verification options to remove the schedule and use the run after backup option , i.e no deferred schedule then the backup runs and the verification is undertaken.
Have I misunderstood the verification schedule purpose?
if so can someone explain where I am going wrong please?
Also what is the deferred backup number in the verification schedule meant to do, I have it set to 1, the documentation is unclear so a little light on its purpose would also help
thank you
