Pre backup script on master server

[Ed_Kowal]

Hi,

I looking solution to run pre backup scripts on MasterServer.

Bpstart_notify is designed for client, parent_notify for master but .... no wait for end execute this script.  Pre backup scripts must generate list of files to backup and add it to appropriate backup script.

Maybe someone knows a solution for this situation?

regards,

Hi,

You could create a policy with a user backup schedule, then have your script run on the client, produce the file list, then add the files to a filelist. At the end of your script you call bpbackup with the appropriate policy name, schedule, and specify the file list that the script just created.

You'll need to schedule your script to start at a certain time, and open the windows in the user backup schedule on the master.
