Arcserve 11.1 Windows agent - pre/post commands possible?

Hi guys,

we are running Brightstor 11.1 on our Windows 2000/2003 network and 10 servers are being backup'd during the night. On all clients the agent is running and I would like to execute a script on each client before and after the job starts on that client. The job will disable and enable the local anti virus software, for performance reasons. But I can't seem to find any information on how to configure an agent to use pre/post commands. I have found this for Unix based agents, but not Windows. Is it supported? I'd rather not use 1 general script to shutdown all anti virus software on every client when the nightly job begins, but rather per client that is being processed.

Don't know because I don't remember the details on the 11.1 agent. In the current Client Agent Admin you can add a Pre and Post command under Configuration.
