Bpstart and bpend notify scripts with sql policies

hi ,

does bpstart and bp end notify script work with sql policy?i have used this in waindows-nt policy and it work , however it does not seems to work with sql policy.

  • The bpstart_notify and bpend_notify scripts do not get called during a SQL database backup.

    Details:
    This issue is related to a limitation of the DBBACKUP.EXE process. During SQL backups, DBBACKUP.EXE is the process responsible for the backups. This process does not have the capability of calling the bpstart_notify and bpend_notify scripts; therefore, the scripts will fail to execute.
