I'm using ZWC to backup a windows server that runs MS SQL Server 2005. MS SQL Server 2005 runs it's own in-built task to create database backup files and then ZWC picks those up for delivery to the amanda server running on a remote linux machine. We've just discovered that (due to a Microsoft bug with the way the SQL Server Writer service interacts with a 'backup tool') the backups get corrupted and aren't recoverable. The Microsoft recommended workaround is to stop the SQL Server Writer service before running the 'backup tool' (see here for more details: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937683/en-us) Does ZWC have pre/post scripting capabilities to do this?
