PowerProtect Data Manager 19.17 SAP HANA User Guide

Add pre-scripts and post-scripts for application agents

Before using a pre-script or post-script with a backup, you must add the script to the PowerProtect Data Manager server. The PowerProtect Data Manager UI provides the options to add, edit, delete, and download a script.

1. In the PowerProtect Data Manager UI, select Protection > Scripts.
   The Scripts page appears.
2. On the Scripts page, add or upload a script:
   • To manually add a script, click Add and then go to the next step.
   • To upload a script, click Upload. When uploaded, the script text appears in the text box.
3. On the Add Script page, complete the following settings:
   • Name—Type the script file name.
   • Type—Select Pre or Post as appropriate.
   • Compatibility—Select Windows or Unix as appropriate.
   • Description—Optionally, type a description of the script.

   • Script—Add the script text in the text box, or copy and paste the script text directly into the text box, and click to revise the script text. If you uploaded the script, the text should already appear in the text box.

     NOTE:Replacing an original script also updates any associated protection policies with the revised script.
   • Script Parameters—Optionally, click Add Parameter, and then specify the parameter values such as a name, data type, and default value. When finished adding parameters, click Save.
     NOTE:Script parameters are only supported for PowerStore and PowerMax block volume assets, and will not be applied to other asset types.
4. Click Save.
