Validate only after full backup
On a new computer I just built, with two SSD's in RAID 0 configuration, I need a more robust backup strategy than my previous which was just one backup/day with validation, and using Chain2Gen to start a new chain after five days.
I am considering doing hourly backups without validation (since it takes so long) during the day, with a complete backup and validation at night, then shutting down the computer.
Ideally I would want to do the complete backup/validation to start at 10PM, and subsequently start the incrementals.
However, how does one schedule this? I could easily schedule an incremental backup to start at 10PM, and clean out the archive location prior to that (using Chain2Gen, although I don't think I can schedule that for day AND time).
I could also use the facility within TIH2010 to start a new full backup after 10 or so incrementals, and not delete the previous archive. I would then have to keep track of the archive storage size manually, which is not particularly desireable.
But how do I set the validation to only occur after one of the backup tasks, instead of after every task?
If I schedule the validation to run as a separate task, how can I ensure that it does not start to run until after the backup task has completed?
Thank you for any suggestions.
