Feature Request: Jobs Pre/Post Scripts

Post by uatre_fnl »

Hi Veeam R&D Team,

I'm currently running the latest Veeam Backup & Replication v13 (build 13.0.1.2067) and we have recently started migrating our production workloads from VMware ESXi to Proxmox VE.

While the PVE integration is a great addition, I've noticed a significant gap in feature parity regarding job orchestration. In VMware/Hyper-V jobs, we have the "Scripts" tab under Storage > Advanced Settings, which allows us to execute PowerShell or Batch scripts locally on the VBR server before and after the job.

Currently, this tab is missing for Proxmox VE backup jobs.

Since these scripts run on the VBR's local OS and not inside the guest or the hypervisor, there shouldn't be a technical barrier to including this orchestration logic for PVE jobs.

Specific Request:
Could you please prioritize adding the Pre-Job and Post-Job script execution (local to the VBR) for Proxmox VE jobs in the next update? This is a critical requirement for anyone managing secure or segmented infrastructures where Guest Interaction is not an option.

Thanks for the great work on the PVE integration so far!

Best regards,
