Hello,
I am running win2000 as my backupo server. For backups I use a third
party software.
My backups are stored on the external network storage, which is in
different building.
My network storage is using the nfs file system, which allows me to
perform bigger backups than 4G.
Normally I map the storage drive as X: drive using the map command. (I
have the services for unix installled). My map script looks like this:
>>
net use x: \\192.168.40.7\share1 /persistent:yes
/user:domainname\administrator
>>
Nothing complicated. I want to be sure that my backing software will
have the X drive available every time it starts the backup. Because I
know that backups starts at 12.00 pm I wrote a script that will map the
drive x. The script will run everyday at 11:50 pm using the scheduler.
Scripts looks like above one.
Unfortunalely when I try run that script using the scheaduled task, the
drive is never mapped.
When I run it by clicking it it runs ok and maps the drive.
I wrote another script which is started by scheduler with command:
"C:\mapx.bat > c:\log2.txt" to find out what is going on.
<<
The script looks like this:
echo %username%
net use x: /delete
net use x: \\192.168.40.7\share1 /persistent:yes
x:
dir
cd saturn_files
dir
<<
If I run it using the scheduler the log2.txt file looks like this:
C:\>echo Administrator
Administrator
C:\>net use x: /delete
C:\>net use x: \\192.168.40.7\share1 /persistent:yes
