Not sure if Maven has a plugin for this (I'm sure someone else will step in
with the proper Maven approach), but you can certainly run them via Ant tags
in your maven scripts. Here's an example from a Windows environment:
...
<exec executable="db2cmd.exe">
<arg line="/c /w"/>
<arg line="${db2commandfile}"/>
<arg line="${db2args}"/>
<arg line=">${db2logfile} 2>&1"/>
</exec>
...
Doco for the exec tag in Ant:

Hope this helps.

Subject: executing scripts from Maven
I'm still new to maven, but looking through the documentation I don't see
the capabilities to execute scripts or *nix commands. Is maven not built to
do that, is it simply something for the java-centric world or did I just not
see that capability? We are attempting to use it as the principle part in
migrating an old application to java and I am looking to see if it can
execute some of the commands necessary for making a build happen. I can't
really find a maven lexicon of commands aside from the plugins(or did are
the plugins the source of command
infrastructure?)
