If you want to not have jobs trigger immediately after those actions, you'll need to either disable your NB startup script or be really quick with another suspend command. - John Nardello

So how do you turn scheduling back on after using it?

But I could still submit jobs manually. When I went to 6.5, VERITAS told me to just stop the bprd daemon. Well, with that not running I can not submit jobs manually. Sometimes, I am working on the master server and bring up netbackup and don't want any jobs to run. Anybody have any ideas on how to do this?
