PBS Verify Job at custom time range

[xmatrix83]

Hello to all,
I have 3 PVE and 1 PBS, I wanted to configure verify jobs on the PBS, the problem is that the pre-configured times to do the verify-job are substantially overnight.
Since the backups run at night and during the day the PBS does nothing, I would like to configure the verification jobs during business hours. Can you tell me how I can configure a custom time range? TNX

If I'm not mistaken you can set your own time range on when PBS jobs will run in the GUI.

https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/calendarevents.html

I've set my Pruning to run every 2 hours and my GB to run every 4 hours using 0/4:00

Hopefully a Proxmox Admin can comment and confirm.

Oh that's right, I saw the drop-down menu and didn't think I could write freely.

 

[greavette]

Yeah it appears we can. I would like a Proxmox Admin or someone to confirm for me the changes we can make.

for example, if I wanted a task to run every 4 hours I think I would write it out as follows:

0/4:00

And if I wanted a task to run every 1.5 hours I would write it out as follows:

0/1:30

Is this correct?

Thank you.

0/4:00

this means starting at 00:00, every 4th hour, so 00:00, 04:00, 08:00, 12:00,..

0/1:30

this means every hour at 30 minutes, so 00:30, 01:30, 02:30,...

i am afraid you cannot have a single schedule for 'every 1 1/2 hour'
but you could make 2 jobs, one at 0,3, 6, 9..
and one at 1:30, 4:30, ...
