Global Settings vs Client Settings

Server
1

Hi,

I would like to configure the backup settings such that each client machine can have a different setting. For ex: Client A should be backed up between 4 - 6 PM only. Client B from 6 - 8 PM.

I also want client specific settings like no. of incr backups, no. of full backups, etc.

I know where to set it on the client and i have already put in these settings on the client. There is a global level setting on the server too.

It looks like the server ignores the individual client setting and uses the server settings for backup.

How can i set the clients to override the server?

I presume that for clients where i do not touch the settings (leave it at default), the server settings will take over?

Sorry if this has already been discussed but i could not find the topic.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Anand

I noticed this as well. I need to use individual settings to rename clients. A lot of our machines are named using serial numbers and some other data, but in UrBackup I’d like to change that to something I can control to help me locate the machine easier.

When I changed a few to use individual settings the server just seemed to ignore it.
