doesn't it have to be moved up from goodies to the bin folder to actually run? I know tha is the case in UNIX clients.
>>> "Steve Fogarty" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 12/12/2006 2:34 PM >>> I believe in Windows, it is located in "C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin\goodies". There are bpstart_notify.bat and bpend_notify.bat scripts. You can modify them to run other scripts, at the start and end of the backup. But BE CAUTIONED! These start script runs prior to each stream, and the end runs after each stream. Not just when the whole backup starts/stops. So this works ok if you are running one stream (ie) all_local_drives. But if you run multiple streams, it is not much use. If you use them to stop/start services, the services will be going up/down multiple times during your backup. In fact, is there anyone out there that uses these scripts with multiple streams? Just curious what they are good for. When you say you are currently using Storage Data Protector, is that HP's Data Protector? I know that has preexec and postexec scripts that run prior to the whole backup, and after the whole backup.

I have one backup that requires a script to be run before the backup kicks off, and one that needs to run once the backup completes, and these scripts must run local to the host. These are all Windows clients. Can anyone point me in the right direction - I am not quite sure how to do this....
