hello,
i'm trying here to implement pre/post-snapshot scripts for backuping up some Linux-based VMs using VCB. i need to quiesce databases inside VM during snapshotting. according to VM backup guide i need to create following scripts inside VM:
/usr/sbin/pre-freeze-script
/usr/sbin/post-thaw-script
during snapshotting VMware Tools should run these scripts automatically. i have tried it with different Linux flavors and these scripts are totally ignored. they are just not launched at all.
am i missing something? VMware tools are installed inside VM. scripts have execute permissions set.
regards,
kipz
