Also keep in mind that when a service runs under the local system account there
is no
environment, and therefore PATH isn't defined, so any file or pathnames
referenced in
the pre/post schedule command must be fully qualified.

This can lead to some confusion because a command file which runs under an
interactive account may not necessarily run under the local system account.

You can also get around these problems by having the service logon as an
interactive account.

Subject: Re: Pre and Post Schedules


we are not using the pre and post. I have used these command with other
backup utilities. You need to verify the account has the privelige to start
and stop the services. Check what accounts can do this in the control panel
under services. if you can login as the adsm client try adn run them from
the command line.
