For details on the use of the Retain backups field, refer to

Backup Retention Policy set in the Preferences

section.

After making all selections, save the profile by pressing the Save button at the bottom. The information will be

saved and the window will be closed.

Pre-backup and Post-backup Programs

Within the backup profile, you may configure a program to run on the client, before and/or after the backup

command runs. You can also select to have programs execute before and after the creation of snapshots used

for backups. This program, either a pre-backup program or post-backup program, is a custom program which

exists on one or more clients, and may perform any operation, such as starting and stopping database

programs, forcing users to log off the system, etc. To configure pre- or post-backup programs, press the

Configure button next to the Pre & Post Backup Programs field. When doing so, the following screen will

appear:

Note that the options for running programs prior to or after creation of snapshots are only available with

backups of data contained in JFS2 filesystems (AIX), LVM logical volumes (Linux) and ZFS filesystems

(Solaris).

Using the web interface is slightly different. You will notice the option to configure pre and post backup

programs directly from the main profile configuration screen:

The pre-backup and post-backup programs will be executed with ROOT USER authority. Therefore, they must

be placed in the DATADIR/custom directory by the root user on the client (where DATADIR is the directory you

selected on each system when SBAdmin was configured - i.e. /storix). The custom directory is owned by the

root user and only the root user on each system has the ability to add files to this directory. The commands

placed in the custom directory may be shell scripts or binary programs and must have execute permission.

To configure a pre-backup or post-backup program, simply add the name of the program to the profile in either

of the Pre-backup Program or Post-backup Program fields. Do not enter the full path name of the program,

only the file name. The program is assumed to be in the DATADIR/custom directory. You may also add

optional arguments to the command, separated by spaces.
