Hello,

is it possible to start a script within a kvm-guest after the proxmox-backup was successfully?

Thanks for help

Hello Dietmar,

thanks for your answer, is it possible to include this into the webgui-backup-interface, or do i have to use a cron-job?
When i have to use the cron-job, does the script also take care of the maximal number of backup-files?

Thanks

Tobias

EDIT: Does the hook-script can be execute on the Guest-VM or only on the host-System?

You can configure that in /etc/vzdump.conf

Hello,

Tnaks for your answer.
But i Need to restart a Service in my Guest-System after backup with Proxmox.
The Problem is, that after Backup my USB-Device wont work until i restart 1 Service.
How can i realize this? Do you have an idea?

Thanks

Tobias
 
Have a look at the options to execute a command on the guest from the host - AFAIR, that can work using containers.
 
Hello Dietmar,
i don't know why it wont work. I figured out that i have to initalize my USB-Modem after the Backup. (http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/14388-Proxmox-ve-2-3-amp-Backup-amp-usb-director).
At the moment i think about restarting usb-modem from Host-System with ssh.
But using the hook-script the script will be executed before the backup is finished. I need to start a script after the Backup is finished.
Do you have an idea how to do?

Thanks a lot
