The pre and post events in Azure Update Manager allow you to perform certain tasks automatically before and after a scheduled maintenance configuration. For more information on how to create schedule maintenance configurations, see [Schedule recurring updates for machines by using the Azure portal and Azure Policy](scheduled-patching.md). For example, using pre and post events, you can execute the following tasks on machines that are part of a schedule. The following list isn't exhaustive, and you can create pre and post events as per your need.

In case of multiple pre-events, all of them will execute independently of each other. You can customize as per your needs by defining the logic in the pre-events. For example, if you want two pre-events to run sequentially, you can include a delayed start time in your second pre-event’s logic. </br> If the pre-event continues to run beyond 20 mins or fails, you can choose to cancel the schedule run otherwise the patch installation proceeds irrespective of the pre-event run status.|
