Configuring Custom Actions

2.Executable files for custom actions must be located on a system disk. If a executable file is located on an external or network disk, the Upgrade Side loses access to the file while the system is in split mode.

3.For information about writing your own programs for custom actions, see “Programming Notes for Custom Actions” on page 3-15.

To configure a custom action

1.On the Custom Actions page, do one of the following:

•Next to File, type the full path name and file name of the executable file you want to run. (The file must already exist on the system.) For example:

C:\bin\mybatchfile.bat

•Click Browse to locate the executable file using a file browser. Click the file name in the file browser, then click Open to select the file.

2.Next to Arguments, type any arguments that you need to run with your executable file.

No arguments are required; however, see “Programming Notes for Custom Actions” on page 3-15for information about optionally passing Active Upgrade environment variables to your executable file.

3.In the drop-down list for Control type, select the option that best describes when the Active Upgrade console should execute your custom action, as described in Table 3-3.

Table 3-3. Control Types for Custom Actions

Control Type	Purpose

Start Application	Executes the custom action whenever the Active Upgrade console
	needs to start applications. For example, the console needs to restart
	applications on the Upgrade Side when you merge the system.

Stop Application	Executes the custom action whenever the Active Upgrade console
	needs to stop applications. For example, the console needs to stop
	applications on the Upgrade Side when you split the system. It also
	stops applications on the Production Side when you merge the
	system.

Readiness Check	Executes the custom action once during the readiness check, before
	you initiate the Active Upgrade process. This control type allows you
	to build your own verifications into the readiness check.
