Running Inventory Task Automatically

Thread needs solution

I am looking for a way to be able to have the Inventory Task run weekly without user intervention. Currently we have a Tape Library consisting of 5 sets of 8 tapes, rotated weekly. With our previous backup solution we could have our inventory run automatically before our weekly full backup (run Friday evenings after the tapes were swapped)
I can see that I can run commands prior to running the backup, but cannot see a way to schedule the Inventory Task, only run it manually.

Thank you.

You can use pre-post commands as you mentioned.

Use command "acrocmd inventory tape".

I suggest the following:

  1. use command list tape_libraries --output=raw to get tape library identifier
  2. use this identifier ID in the "acrocmd inventory tape --libraries=ID"
