You can configure default values that you want used to prepopulate the Run Command After Operation dialog box when it is opened from either the Backup and Verification tab or the Backup Wizard.

To use the Run Command After Operation dialog box to configure default settings, complete the following steps.

Step

Action

1

Open the Run Command After Operation dialog box from the Option menu. To do this, select Options > Default Run Command After Operation.

2

In the "Specify a computer where..." box, enter or browse to the name of the host on which your program or script resides.

3

In the "Specify the full path..." box, browse to your program or script.

4

Form the command input string in the Command Arguments box. You can do this using any combination of the following methods:

  • To enter text directly into the Command Arguments box, click in the box and type the desired text.
  • To enter a SnapManager variable into the Command Arguments box, do the following:
    1. If necessary, click in the Command Arguments box to position the cursor.
    2. In the SnapManager Variables list, select the variable you want to enter.

      For more information, see Command arguments pass information to your program or script.

    3. Click Select.

      Note
      The $SnapInfoPath variable is automatically enclosed within double quotes so that the actual path name can contain spaces without affecting the script invocation on the Windows command line. If you do not want the double quotes to appear in your command line, remove them from the Command Arguments field in the Run Command After Operation dialog box.

5

Repeat Step 4 as needed until the Command Arguments box contains the arguments you want to pass to your program or script.

6

Click OK to apply your changes and close the Run Command After Operation dialog box.

Result

SnapManager verifies that the specified program exists on the specified system.

Whenever the Run Command After Operation dialog box is opened from either the Backup and Verification tab or the Backup Wizard, the boxes will be prepopulated with the values you specified as default settings.

Note
SnapManager does not run the command at this time.
