Delay after system startup
Hi,
In the settings of a backup, the delay after system startup is not recorded.
The operation planning is on "Event" and I want to start this operation 5 minutes after system startup.
Is there a solution?
TIA

Hello shadowsports,
Thanks of your interest.
The is starting just after the system startup and not after a delay, because this one is not recorded.

Greetings DLE,
Your scheduled task is set to Start task upon event
You selected System Start radio button and put a checkmark in the delay operation box.
You then entered a value (minutes) in the field, but this duration is not adhered to on restart?
Task is starting immediately?

Good evening shadowsports,
You then entered a value (minutes) in the field, but this duration is not adhered to on restart?
But this field only is highlighted on "event".
Task is starting immediately?
Yes, the run is OK, but sometime my internet connection is not up, and it is impossible to send an email about the run of the task.

DLE,
I'm afraid I don't understand your issue. The task runs correctly, but your internet isn't up to send a notification? What is the desired outcome? Please clarify.

What is the desired outcome?
Is to have an email on the run and in the log that the task is completely finished.

The completed task log will show if the task completed successfully and the last line of the log will indicate that an email was or was not successfully sent. The email will mirror most of the contents of the log.
To achieve more time at startup, you could add a command to the Backup option Pre/post command option as a pre command.
The Timeout command is a new command to Win7 and it could be used to extend the time before the backup actually starts. YOu could try this as a plain command or better yet, put the command into a bat files and have the pre command run the bat file.
TIMEOUT /T 120 /NOBREAK
More info about the Win7 Timeout command would be available from a command prompt
timeout /?
