Stopping all netbackup services.

[OfficeAutomatio]

Greetings,

       This week I need to stop all backups (Data center maintenance). I know that I can use the bpdown -v -f commands. However will I also need to do this on any Media Servers as well or just the master server?

thanks for any input.

Regards,

Keith

Once the Master is down the Media servers are effectively disconnected. 

If you don't need to shut down servers, just prevent backups from starting, run this on the Master: nbpemreq -suspend_scheduling Then afterwards nbpemreq -resume_scheduling

Thanks Will!!

I am still learning netbackup. I have come a long way but still a lot to learn.
