To limit pre- and post-commands to those in the script directory, you can check the box next to Prevent

execution of commands outside of sc ript directory. You might choose to d o this for security reasons by

tightly controlling the commands that are available in the script directory.

For more information on pre/post commands, see Job Pre-Post Execution Commands.

Barcode ranges deﬁned for a particular job are only available within that single job.

Max number of active hosts This number controls how many clients can be started for all active backup

jobs in the Backup Domain. This option is used to prevent packet loss from occurring if data is transmitted

over a network with limited available bandwidth.
