Adding, changing, or deleting a time window in a policy schedule
Use one of the following procedures to add, change, or delete a time window.
To configure the Start window:
- On the left, click Policies, under Protection. Click the Schedules tab. Under Backup schedules, click Add. Click the Start window tab.
- To indicate the opening of the time window, do the following:
Drag your cursor in the time table.
Click the day and time when you'd like the window to start and drag it to the day and time when you'd like the window to close.
Use the settings in the dialog box.
