    Hi,

     

    Put it into a batch file and run the batch file as a pre-command in your job.

    Make sure that you select the option (which is defaulted) to: Run job only if pre-command is successful.

    If those services need to be restarted after the backup, enter that batch file into the next block below, and keep the 2 options below the command above selected.

     

    Thanks!

Yes...you'd need the location, so c:\batch.bat will be it.
