-PRESCHEDULECMD and -POSTSCHEDULECMD can also be passed through the
schedule definition on the server. And the command that executes on the
client can be scripts that do whatever the scripts are capable of,
depending on the OS and the scripting language used, which means that the
scripts can contain if/then logic to take certain actions based on certain
conditions.
