Post Script in Backup

Post by Yamy »

When I create a backup job that is set to run a Post Script will it always run the Post Script at the end of the job or can I set it so it only runs when it is successful?

Dean, the Post Script will always run, however you can easily check the job result in your script using the following PowerShell command, and then implement the desired script behavior based on the returned status.

Code: Select all

(Get-VBRJob JobName).GetStatus()

Is there a way to get a pre script to run as well?

No, there is no option for pre script right now. What you can do is run the job from that script though, and schedule script (with Windows scheduler) instead of scheduling actual job.
