Using custom scripts in resiliency plans

Using the Resiliency Platform console, you can add a custom script execution task in the resiliency plan.

To use a custom script execution task in a resiliency plan

You can add a custom script execution task to a resiliency plan template or to a resiliency plan.
See Creating a new resiliency plan template.
See Creating a new resiliency plan.
Drag and drop Custom Script into the canvas. Click the pencil icon in the action box to add the task details.
Enter a name for the custom script.
Select the data center and the host where you want to execute the script. Click Next.
Enter the following details:
- The relative path of the script on the specified host. The script path that you enter is taken as relative to the VRTSsfmh InstallDir/vrp/scripts/ directory path.
  For example, if you enter the path of the script as myscripts/backup_scripts/script_name, then the complete path considered by the system will be VRTSsfmh InstallDir/vrp/scripts/myscripts/backup_scripts/script_name.
- Command-line arguments to the script. This is an optional input field.
- Timeout for the script. By default, there is no timeout for the script execution. You can specify a timeout for the script execution. After the specified timeout expires, the script execution task in the resiliency plan is marked as failure but the script execution task is not stopped. The script execution may continue in the background. If you do not specify any timeout, the task will wait till the script is not completed.
Click Save.
