What is the difference between “Backup” (on the bottom bar), “Restart” in the Scheduler Tab, and “Run” in the Scheduler Tab?
The “Backup” button across the bottom bar will start a backup of whichever Session is showing in the Jobs’ tab. Clicking this button has no effect on the scheduling. The “Restart” button will change the status of the highlighted event(s) to “Never”, so that each event will start calculating it’s next run time from this moment. The “Run” button will start a backup using the highlighted event(s) and will set the “Last Run Time” to now. This can cause some seemingly strange scheduling. For example, if an event is set to weekly on Monday, and on a Tuesday you click “Run”, the scheduler will set the Last Run Time to Tuesday and the next Monday will then be skipped because the backup has been executed this week. The best way to learn what is happening to set up a small job and test it.
