You cannot to that in VPD 5.1.

In 5.5, you can workaround it by cloning the job and modifying the job start time.

But 5.1 do not give an option to choose the start time for a backup job.

That is bad,as the customer wants to loose only 4 hours of work.

I do not even get why running another backup (which must be differential) is taking the same amount of time it took the day before after a full (4 hours).
