We use a table which holds dates of bank holidays etc. which we dont want to
do backups on. Have a script that will check the date isnt in the table
before doing the backup.

Subject: Backup Script


Hello,

Is there a way to create a backup job to run everyday except certain days,
specifying what those days are? If there is, how would I do this?

Also, how would I create a backup job that would run once only if there are
changes to the database?
