Scheduled tasks and passwords
Scheduled tasks and passwords
At work, they have a bit of an obsession with changing log-in passwords and after a recent change of my password I realised after a few days that that was why AIS Backup was no longer running my daily backups. Question: would it be possible to incorporate a warning into AIS Backup to reminder the user to change the password in the task manager if the log-in password has been changed?

Scheduled job missed
There are a few reasons why scheduled jobs will not run, one of which is the password has changed.
The comment 'previous schedule missed' will be added to the job screen in the next release. If you see this message and you think the backup should have run (e.g. the PC was turned on at the time) the you may use the existing View / MS Task Scheduler Log option.

Thanks Barry, I look forward to seeing how it works.Barry wrote:There are a few reasons why scheduled jobs will not run, one of which is the password has changed.

Scheduled Tasks
Hi Brian
An alternative way of setting up local backups via the task scheduler has been implemented in build 234 of AISBackup. The new AT option requires that a system administrator sets up the job. The AT option is not compatible with any job that accesses network drives.

Hi Barry
If I understand correctly what you say, then the AT option wouldn't work on my office PC as most of the files that I back up each morning are located on the Council's main server (although they back up all their files every night, I prefer to have a local backup of things I have created for my own convenience).
