Question on using hook script for backups, and an idea.

Is there some location that I can place a hook-script with a certain name and it will get used automatically by a certain backup job? I'm asking because the Backup Scheduler in the webgui does not offer a box for the script option.

I have no issue if I have to turn off the schedules in the webgui and copy the cronjobs back in with the script option added...I'm just making sure that is what I need to do. It seems like script option and config backups on webgui are mutually exclusive.

Regarding forum search: Forgive me if this is on the site somewhere and I've missed it, but I don't see a way to search for posts containing several words. The forum search seems to || my words rather than &&. It makes it harder to locate answers and might be contributing to people asking duplicate questions. To get around it I usually just go to google and limit the search to the forum. Is there a syntax for searching for posts with ALL of a list of words? Sorry again if this is posted somewhere and I missed it. I did look for it for a few minutes.

You can add the 'script' option to the glocal vzdump configuration file '/etc/vzdump.conf'
