Post-backup command
To specify a command/executable file to be executed after the backup is completed
1. In the Command field, type a command or browse to a batch file.
2. In the Working directory field, specify a path to a directory where the command/batch file will be
executed.
3. In the Arguments field, specify the command execution arguments, if required.
4. If successful execution of the command is critical for your backup strategy, select the Fail the task
if the command execution fails check box. In case the command execution fails, the program will
remove the resulting TIB file and temporary files if possible, and the task will fail.
When the check box is not selected, the command execution result does not affect the task
execution failure or success. You can track the command execution result by exploring the log or
the errors and warnings displayed on the Dashboard.

Pre/Post data capture commands
This option is effective for both Windows and Linux operating systems.
The option enables you to define the commands to be automatically executed before and after data
capture (that is, taking the data snapshot) performed by Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 at the
beginning of the backup procedure.

If the Volume Shadow Copy Service (p. 57) option is enabled, the commands' execution and the

Using the pre/post data capture commands, you can suspend and resume a database or application
that is not compatible with VSS. As opposed to the Pre/Post commands (p. 52), the pre/post data
capture commands will be executed before and after the data capture process, which takes seconds,
while the entire backup procedure may take much longer, depending on the amount of data to be
backed up. Therefore, the database or application idle time will be minimal.
