It does. And you may need to look in /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies on
the media/master to find them.

Just copy them to the client in question and put commands in them.

You can name them with .policy and .policy.schedule if you wish to
isolate a certain start/end script for certain backup jobs.

e.g bpstart_notify.Databases.Weekly_full
