Use the Pre/Post Procedure page to run agent procedures either before a Schedule Volumes backup starts or after it completes. Does not apply to Schedule Folders backups.
Use this page to suspend services that may lock files and prevent volume backup from completing. You may also wish to force a system service, such as Exchange or a database, to write all its data to disk prior to system backup. Typically this can be done without requiring the service in question to be down during backup. All critical services can be left fully operational at all times. For example, to backup an Exchange Server, a snap shot of the database is needed prior to the backup start. A procedure will quickly start and stop Exchange to take the snapshot of the database prior to the start of the backup.
