Device backup failed or is outdated.

Hello Roni,

You should receive an email with slightly more descriptive errors when a backup fails. There are many reasons a backup will show a failed status. If just 1 file is unable to be backed up, or several scheduled backups can't be performed (system off or having connectivity issues), or the backup is so large it's taking so long to complete the backup, that it shows failed until it completes. I had a server take a week and a half to backup. A couple days after I started that backup I was getting failed errors, but once it finally finished it was much happier. Are you getting those failed backup emails? What do they say?

Below are the only scheduling options for one device. Unfortunately you can't have 2 different policies applied to one device. I wish you could, that would solve some of my issues too. Though, with some effort you may be able to create a workaround. For example, share the folder of what you want the second backup applied to, then on another device map a network drive and apply the separate policy referencing the new network drive. I haven’t tried this yet myself.
