  • On the job step you can specify a number of times to retry a step on failure along with how long to wait between retries. You really need to be notified when a job fails and determine why your backups are failing and try to fix that problem first.

    You could also define an alert that detects when the job(s) fail and run the job again from the alert.

  • Once you determine which step failed and where you want to restart, right-click on the job in SSMS and select "Start Job at Step...". Then you can select which step you want to restart at.
