Pre & Post Commands

Specify any command line arguments that you require to be run before or after the backup job is launched. This is an advanced function and is typically used by system administrators to stop and restart key services before and after data in their system is backed up. 

Add, edit or delete commands using the buttons on the right-side of the screen.
