Only thing with doing a script to stop the services, dsmc incremental, and 
start the services is, you loose the successful with
skipped files for the event. An ACTION=COMMAND schedule either works (rc=0) or 
failes (rc>0). And in your script you have to make
allowances for DSMC INCREMENTAL returning 0 or 4 for a successful backup. But 
you can't end the script with RC=4 and expect
successful with skipped files.

Unless your pre/post scripts are complex it may be better to code the pre/post 
script files and just do an incremental schedule so
you get the full benefits of the event reporting.

Tim,

It's defined just like your incremental sched, just set action=command (default 
is incremental), then objects=<your script name>

a q sched <sched name> f=d would show:

Policy Domain Name: SPAIX
                 Schedule Name: STATBKTRACK-FULL
                   Description: The weekly full backup of selected tables on
                                 STATDBMS using SQL-BACKTRACK
                        Action: Command
                       Options:
                       Objects: /home/sybase/dump/dbbkup.s

Thanks Lawerence,

I  wasn't aware of that I had planned on  putting the  following commands in 
the dsm.opt file. I have never defined a script
schedule before I am going to have to figure out the correct syntax for this 
type of script.
feel free to give example

Tim
