Q: can you schedule this to happen every day ?

Sure.. but you need to use CCC or other backup software that can handle a network drive.. I also don't believe there is any value in backing up Time Machine backups.. do a fresh clean CCC backup of the computer and of course if you have files (not backups) on the TC then back them up. Where are you going to back up to??

You may be asking about the Archive function that was present in the AirPort Utility 5.x versions, then disappeared in AirPort Utility 6.0-6.2, and now has reappeared with the "new" versions of the Time Capsule that have recently been introduced.

If this is what you are asking about, the "Archive Disk" function is a manual operation only.

This might be a good thing, since the Archive function copies everything on the Time Capsule to another USB drive.....very slowly.....so you would likely be tying up your Time Capsule and Mac for hours each day with a daily backup.

Just to add, what is worse is it is a full disk archive every single time.. no incremental backup.. so will take ages.. even though no packets are going over network at least on older version it was slow as slow..

Bob will need to test if the speed is better now on the AC version.. chalk up another test.

This "test" is way down low on the priority list. My guess is that it will be just as slow as ever.
