    Windows Server 2019 Backup Question

    Im trying to schedule two backups on my Windows server 2019. One of them takes a daily backup of the data disk. And the other one a monthly backup of the entire server. Both of them will be stored on remotely shared folders.

    I created a backup of the data disk in β€˜β€˜Backup Schedule Wizard’’, and configured it to take a backup daily to a remote folder. But you can only schedule one backup there.

    So i need to use task scheduler to schedule the monthly backup of the entire server.

    I find forums about how i do this, but nothing about how to do it to a remotely shared network folder?
    This is the file path i wish to store the backup on:
    \BACKUP-PC\Backup

    I understand i need to input a script in task scheduler?

    I don’t use the backup schedule wizard, instead I have a third party program called ViceVersa.
    in it I have a target location of, in your case, \backup-pc\backup and it works fine.

    if the software you have can’t do the job you want - get software that can!

        sadly, it’s a paid-for product, a one-off payment of about $70’ish.
        there would be others, for free, I just haven’t needed to look that far when I have one that I fully trust already.
