NAME
amanda-scripts - Configuring and using the Script API
DESCRIPTION
The Script API is a flexible system for invoking user-supplied scripts
at various points in the execution of Amanda. This manual page
describes the operation and configuration of the API. For help writing
Script API scripts, see http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/ScriptAPI.
SCRIPTS
This section lists the scripts included with Amanda, see the individual
man page for instructions on using them. For complete How-To
information, consult the Amanda wiki at http://wiki.zmanda.com.
· amzfs-snapshot(8), - create/destroy zfs snapshot.
· script-email(8), - send email.
Script properties work just like application properties: they are
insensitive to case, and - (dash) and (underscore) may be used
interchangeably.
SCRIPTS OUTPUT PROPERTY
A pre-dle-amcheck, pre-dle-estimate or pre-dle-backup executed on the
client can output property on stdout that are sent to the application.
If the output line matches "PROPERTY str1 str2", Amanda sets a property
called "str1" by the value of "str2", that property is sent to the
application.
