Pre-command and Wake On LAN.

[tjv]

Hi, I'm new to NAS backups. Much to learn

The NAS (Asustor AS5404T) will be in sleep mode when not needed.
So you need to put a pre-command in the backup task to wake up the NAS.
However, the task in Windows 11 fails.
Instead, Hasleo gives error code 0x07B0021300000035: 'The network path is not available'.
If I run the batch file outside Hasleo Backup Suite Free (5.6.2.1), the NAS wakes up, no problem.
And there is a time delay in the batch file to guarantee the NAS is fully booted.
It looks like Hasleo backup checks the path before the pre-command. Is this true or not?

Any other ideas?

Thanks.
