Changing User Account for Executing Pre-Post Commands

For a Windows MediaAgent you must specify the user account and password required for executing the Pre/Post commands.

1. From the CommCell Browser, go to Client Computers > client > NDMP > BackupSet.

2. Right-click the subclient in the right pane, and then click Properties.

3. On the Pre/Post Process tab, depending on the process you want to set up, enter the path of the batch file or the shell script in one of the following boxes:

   • PreBackup Process

   • PostBackup Process

4. Click Change.

5. Select one of the following user accounts:

   • Use Local System Account - Select this option to use the local system account on the MediaAgent for executing the Pre-process and Post-process commands.

   • Impersonate User - Select this option to use an authenticated user account for executing Pre/Post commands. However, if the specified user account is not available on the MediaAgent, backup jobs using Pre-process and Post-process commands will fail.

6. Click OK.

7. Click OK to close the Subclient Properties dialog box.
