Backup jobs are scheduled every 12 hours.
- If a backup job lasts less than 12 hours, the next backup will be scheduled 12 hours from the start of the prior backup.
- If a backup jobs lasts longer than 12 hours, the next backup will begin as soon as the prior job completes.
For example, if a backup job starts at 8 a.m. and lasts less than 12 hours, the next backup job will be scheduled for 8 p.m. If a backup job starts at 8 a.m. but lasts more than 12 hours, for example 14 hours, the next backup job will be scheduled to begin as soon as the prior backup job completes. This means the next backup job should start at 10 p.m. The following backup job will be scheduled for 10 a.m.
