Delay to backup

Thread needs solution

Just upgraded to ATI 2019 and would like to change my network for increased backup security. What I need is to wake up a network desktop using a pre command (WoL) which I have done and works fine. The desktop houses the backup drive for the laptop I'm trying to backup. My problem is the time it takes for the desktop to spring into life results in ATI failing. Is there a means to delay the start of the backup after ATI starts to enable the desktop to get online? I know I can use a Task Schedule but would like to avoid that.

 

Cheers

If you are using a Pre Command to wake up your network destination, then why not add the delay to that same command (using a small batch file)?

Just add some extra pings for the delay in the script... Replace n with the number of seconds.

Ping localhost  -n >NUL
