        @dariosplit You want to be able to duplicate a backup job, correct?

          Exactly. I have more VM and I repeat most of the same settings every time.

            I don't believe that functionality currently exists. It's a good suggestion though. 👍

            Have you tried using "smart mode"?

              Yes, smart mode seems to be the answer 🙂

                For example in pfsense I copy the firewall rules and change the name of it, and of the port while everything stays the same. I have a lot of VM and for each VM i have several rules for backup, (time and place). I would remove copy it just a unnecessary repeat

                  So copy shouldn't copy everything in risk of doing a duplicate? How do you imagine this? More functional details means more chances to get it 🙂

                    I have been using tags together with smart backup. This works really well.
