Run Batch before Backup Job
Hello,
I want to run a batch file before the Backup Job starts.
The batch file is located in the following path:
C:\BackupScript\HDDLetter.bat
The batch file has the following contents:
Diskpart.exe /s "C:\BackupScript\HDDLetterScript.txt"
In HDDLetterScript.txt is the following:
Select volume 5
Assign letter=x
If I run the batch file normally with a double-click, everything works.
My external hard drive gets the drive letter X
I always get an error when testing with Acronis.
In Acronis I have the following path:
C:\BackupScript\HDDLetter.bat
Also tried: C:/BackupScript/HDDLetter.bat
As a working directory I have tried the following:
C:\BackupScript
C:\BackupScript\
C:/BackupScript
C:/BackupScript/
and empty
Did I do something wrong?
How does it have to be done right?
Thanks
Hey Vasily,
thanks a lot.
I got excaly the same config like you.
It is a german installation.
I hope you can read or translate it.
I think after the red line are the subsequent errors.
The exact error is:
Backup ist fehlgeschlagen

Hi Daniel,
Thank you for the clarifications, I believe I see what the problem is: you're trying to mount the target backup location _before_ the backup via pre/post commands. The issue is that the backup location initialization and detection is performed by backup plan _before_ running the pre/post commands, so your X: drive simply doesn't get mounted via the batch file from pre/post commands at this stage and thus entire plan fails. This scenario is not something that would work through pre/post commands in the current version of Acronis Backup. You should schedule the drive mounting (pre-command) via default Windows scheduler which will run the batch file before the backup plan should run, while the unmounting can be done via post-backup command from backup options.
Thank you.
Hey,
okay thx.
Then I'll run the batch with Windows scheduler.
Greetings from Germany
Daniel
