Upon further review, it appears PARENT_START_NOTIFY and
PARENT_END_NOTIFY are potential candidates to handle at least most of
the scenario I've described below, but I can't seem to find any sample
scripts...

Subject: bpstart_notify.bat, bpend_notify.bat, and multiple streams

O.k., I can find many old posts regarding bpstart_notify.bat,
bpend_notify.bat, and multiple streams; but none that are very current.

Has the issue of multiple streams and running these batch files been
rectified (triggered by the parent job, rather than the streams), or is
scripting still required? My needs are twofold:

1. I need to stop a service just once when a policy starts, and start
the service just once when it ends.
2. There are multiple policies (that must remain segregated for a
variety of reasons) that will run this command on a given client. I need
to ensure that policy B will not restart the service if Policy A still
has a running backup that requires it to be down (and vice versa).

It's a Win2K3 environment.
