Setting Up Pre and Post Processes for PostgreSQL Backup Operations That Fail

By default, a specified post-process command is executed only on successful completion of the scan or backup operation or if the job is killed.

Use the following steps to run a post-process even if the scan or backup operation did not complete successfully. For example, this may be useful to bring a database online or release a snapshot.

Procedure

1. From the CommCell Browser, navigate to <Client> | PostgreSQL | <Instance> | <BackupSet>.

2. Right-click the subclient, and then click Properties.

3. Click the Pre/Post Process tab in the dialog box that appears.

4. Select Run Post Backup Process for all attempts.

5. Click OK.

See Pre and Post Processes - Commands and Arguments for information on additional arguments that the CommServe sends to the Pre and Post processes.
