Topic: Dar2 Backup and Regular Backup

[r2ks]

Hello Everyone,
I have a Question about Backing up ( it is to a Usb Harddrive )
First if I backup manually with Dar my Backups work so I know that everything is working with the Backup (Except) When Go to Set Backup to Backup at a Certian time it never Backs Up ?? This is with Dar and With SME Workstation Backup.
This is of a Manual Backup with Dar

Please post this in the bug tracker so the issue can be investigated.

Also, it would be great if you could post the bug number here for future reference.

Thanks

Thank you all ( Figured out )
Problem was that i thought the Disk needed tobe Mounted before the Backup and so what i would do is Mount the Usb/device and that is why it would not work.
I did not Relize the Back UP mounts the Device Then dismounts with Every Backup
