Start Backupjob minimised as scheduled task

[IFRALFIS]

Hello,

I start a backup job as described in this manual:
https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/agent ... tml?ver=50

with the following call:
"C:\Program Files\Veeam\Endpoint Backup\Veeam.EndPoint.Manager.exe" "backup" "<ID>"

This works so far, but the problem is that the CMD window opens in the foreground and remains open until the job is done.

Is there a way to execute the job via command line but minimised?

Many thanks

Hello,
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/210 ... on-windows should work (I did not try it)

As alternative, one could use the Windows task scheduler.

Best regards,

Hello Hannes,

thanks for your answer.

I have solved it with this batch file:

@echo off

set self=%~f0
if "%1"=="minimized" goto :minimized
cd %~dp0
start "" /min cmd /c "%self%" minimized
exit /b
:minimized


call "C:\Program Files\Veeam\Endpoint Backup\Veeam.EndPoint.Manager.exe" "backup" "<ID>"

exit /b


I used this with the Windows task scheduler
