Hi everyone
I have a question about script before/after backup on Veeam Backup & Replication 9.5U4.
I have a Windows Server 2016 VM with Veeam and a Linux server repository on a physical machine. I want that the vm automatically power on repository, do the backup and after power off.
In Edit Backup Job /advanced / Script i flag "run the following script before the job" i put my cmd script
WolCmd.exe "MAc Address" "IP" 255.255.255.0 7
and it works (power on machine)
but the poweroff script doesn't work
plink.exe -batch -pw password user@ip shutdown -h now
If i click on poweroff cmd or use a scheduled task, physical machine correctly poweroff, but if i put on "run after backup" dosen't work.
I have only one user on vm server, i also tried to convert cmd to exe but it's the same

Re: Automatic Power On/Off repository
Hello,
and welcome to the forums.
The official way is to open a support case... but I'm pretty sure that you will find the answer in one of the job logfiles (c:\programdata\veeam\backup\job name\) and search for the script / plink command
I guess that plink is not in the %path% of the local system account. Did you try the absolute path to plink.exe already?
Best regards,
Hannes

Re: Automatic Power On/Off repository
An alternative to shutdown is halt. Since you want to power off the repo you can use : halt -p

Re: Automatic Power On/Off repository
thank you so much
I solved by raising the user running the veeam service to administrator
