Recently, this has become an issue because all the backups are configured to do a full followed by 3 incremental, which means that they are all doing a full at the same time. At the moment this means they are running for 4 or 5 days continuously!!
What I would like to do is stagger the full backups so that they don't all happen at the same time.
Current settings let you specify a full backup every 2, 3, or 4 weeks. Is that what you mean?
You could change the settings to "never" for a bit, and then set some of the shares to 3 weeks. Then try setting some more back right after the first full backups resume.
