Weekly Directory Backup Procedure

Thread needs solution

How do I backup only one directory weekly and keep current the last 8 occurances only..???
This way I will only have 8 backups at any given time.
The next occurance would overwrite the last backup.
Thanks

Do a My Data backup, selecting the desired directory, and set the desired number of backups and set the consolidation to occur after 1 backups. There'sn othing to consolidate since you're doing full backups instead of incrementals but the consolidation process will delete oldest file, maintaining your desired number of backups.

Except for the little consolidation trick, the rest is in the user guide.
