Setting Holidays

You can define holidays for days that you do not want to run schedules. Holidays are set at the CommCell level or the client or client computer group levels.

Note: If you set a holiday at the client or client group level, restore jobs scheduled to run during that holiday will run. To prevent restore jobs from running during a holiday, set the holiday at the CommCell level.
