Re: Automated backups too long - backup half of them (even or odd)?

Hi again,

I think i should better modify the backup/util/helper/backup_cron_helper.class.php file, to update the run_automated_backup function, inserting these lines just before the line containing "// Check if the course is not scheduled to run right now" :

                // Skip courses with odd id on even day,
                // and courses with even id on odd day
                if (((date('z') % 2) == 1) && (($course->id % 2) == 0)) {
                    $skipped = 1;
                    $skippedmessage = 'No backup of even course on odd day';
                }
                elseif (((date('z') % 2) == 0) && (($course->id % 2) == 1)) {
                    $skipped = 1;
                    $skippedmessage = 'No backup of odd course on even day';
                }

It should work better (i hope).
