Hi Jean-Louis,

pre-host-backup and post-host-backup can't be executed on client, they can be 
executed on the server only.

Thanks for your fast answer, I modified http://wiki.zmanda.com/index.php/Script_API 
accordingly - maybe you or others could step in an fill out the "?" :-)
Since many backup can be run in parallel, The amanda infrastructure can't guarantee that the script will be execute before after all dumps. All solution to this problem is complicated.
So as (pre|post)-host-backup can't be executed on the client: What is the best 
way to stop some services on the client before the first DLE is backed up and 
restart them after the client has been backed up?
A solution is to run a script on the server that do rsh/ssh on the client to run the command you want.
