UltraBac provides two levels of "Before" and "After" batch command line interface opportunities. Note that there is also a "Before/After" command line interface when creating or editing "Scheduled Backup Groups". The set Before/After jobs execute before and after the set while the group Before/After jobs execute before and after the backup group.
Note: The set Before/After jobs do not execute with Ad-hoc backups (when selecting "Perform Backup"), instead they execute when the set is backed up as part of a group (Scheduled Backup).
The "Before backup begins, run" and the "After backup completes, run" fields are for complete qualified path names of any file NT/2000 is capable of executing.
Clicking on the "Create Set" button will display the following dialog box:
Figure 50: Before/After Programs & Password Options
This screen allows entry of "Before / After" user defined program paths, an abort option, and a Windows for Workgroup or Windows 95/98 password when connecting to a network workstation using WFW or Win95/98. For details on the "Before/After" commands on the set level:
See User Manual: "Before & After Jobs" chapter.
For details on the specific formats of the "Before backup" and "After backup" options:

To enable a backup set to connect to a WFW or Win95/98 client with a password protected share, the password must be entered into the "Password (Optional)" field of the "Create Set" dialog box displayed above.
