Pre/Post backup command

Pre-backup and post-backup commands give customers a lot more flexibility when deploying the Ahsay backup solution to different environments or when there are changes to the existing environment. This option enables the customer to define command(s) or a script such as a .bat file on Windows or a .sh file on Linux/FreeBSD, which Ahsay will automatically execute before and or after the backup job.

Ahsay Pre/Post custom backup command

  • Perform a shutdown of an application or service before a backup
  • Perform a startup of an application or service after a backup
  • Generate a dump or an export of a database(s) using a native utility to a temporary location for a backup
  • Deleting some temporary files from the disk before starting backup or after the backup is completed
