Will vorta do the scheduled backups for all profiles or only for the active one?

[rw227]

Hi, In Vorta I have 2 profiles. Profile A runs daily to Repo A and Profile B runs every 5 days to Repo B. ProfileA works as scheduled but ProfileB appears to only run as a "missed backup" when selected, hence my question in the title.

If "No", is this an option worth considering?

If I run " vorta --create 'ProfileB" as a Post-backup script, would that work?

You can enable automatic backups for any repo. Just be sure to select it before changing the settings.

@rw227
You should be able to use two profiles that create scheduled backups.
The tracking and execution of scheduled jobs is implemented on a "per profile"-base - i.e. the schedules are tracked independently of each other.

If this does not work reliably, and you can reproduce the problem, please open a bug report, including the log files.

I think that I am seeing this same issue. I have two backup profiles. One backs up to an external hard drive daily. The other backs up to a server weekly. The daily backup works on schedule as expected. The weekly doesn't seem to ever run unless manually triggered with the "Start Backup" button.

The Schedule tab will display the next date one week after it was last run as expected, but will not actually run that backup. Also, the "Next Backup" will display a date that is in the past if I have manually run one in more than a week.
