    Take your pick

    (1)

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbpemreq -suspend_scheduling

    To resume the scheduling, :

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbpemreq -resume_scheduling

    Note, this command does not 'survive' a reboot - If you reboot / restart NBU, jobs will start.

    This will not stop "user initiated" backups (this would include oracle backups etc ,,, - for this I guess wyou would have to deactivate the policy.

    (2)

    ... which is another option, deactivate all the policies ...

    (3) Stop NetBackup

    (4)  Stop nbpem process and bprd process
