The re-established connections probably occur because the scheduled backup 
event is still active.
Take a look at the schedule duration and make sure that it expires before 
undesirable hours.

For example:
Let's say you have a schedule for 5:00am and a duration of 6 hours.
You notice it is still running at 8:30am and try to cancel it, since it is 
still in the defined 6 hour window, the schedule is still active, the process 
restarts.
If you lower the duration to 3 hours, and cancel it at 8:30, it is now beyond 
the defined window for the backup.
The event will be flagged as failed and when the client tries to re-establish 
the connection it will disconnect since there is no "active" schedule to 
execute.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Stopping a client backup

I've been fighting a scheduled backup issue for one node.  Probably a firewall 
issue.

But, to keep management happy, a successful TELNET <ip> <portnumber> will not 
suffice.

I need to cancel the backup due to bandwidth issues across the wire during 
daytime hours.  The normal schedule won't run until late in the evening.

I've tried cancelling sessions, but the node end is re-establishing sessions to 
keep the backup running.

So, the question: How can I start a scheduled backup, then, once I see it is 
working, cancel it?

Thanks.
