PowerProtect Data Manager 19.16 SAP HANA User Guide

Content requirements for pre-scripts and post-scripts

The pre-script and post-script content must be in text format with a maximum size of 20 KB. The maximum number of scripts that a PowerProtect Data Manager server supports is 10,000. A maximum of one pre-script and one post-script can run with a backup on UNIX or Windows.

Each script must return the exit code 0 to indicate success. Other exit codes can depend on the particular script and environment. Ensure that the exit codes and corresponding message strings (if available) are logged in the log file.

The pre-scripts and post-scripts can also perform operations based on the input parameters specified for the scripts. The following examples show the use of input parameters with a pre-script and post-script.
