Hi,

You may put your script on the client in
..install_path\NetBackup\bin (page 168 admin guide)
or may be in
...install_path\NetBackup\bin\goodies (page 171,176 )

Your script has to be named as bpstart.notify.bat/bpend_notify.bat
in case you'd like it runs before/after every backup.

In case it has to be run before/after a policy or sched, you have to
name it as bpstart_notify."policyname".bat or
bpstart_notify."policyname"."schedulename".bat (in a similar way
for the bpend_notify.bat)

The script receives some variables about the results of previous backups,
that may be useful for the execution of the script itself.
