post_back_cmdLocate this document in the navigation structure

This parameter lets you execute external commands - that is, executable programs or scripts - directly after database files were backed up by BRBACKUP.

            post_back_cmd = "<post_back_cmd> $"

If the placeholder “$” is set, it is replaced by the following value when called by the relevant command or program:

<exit_code>: the BRBACKUP exit code

BRBACKUP only accepts that the external commands have been successfully executed when:

  • Exit code 0 is returned

  • No messages are returned or only messages starting with #INFO

Example

You can use this parameter and pre_back_cmd to do certain pre- and post-processing before and after BRBACKUP processing.
