Re: [Bacula-users] Pausing the backup schedule

Hi,
Just comment out the jobs in jobs.conf and it will not do those backups.
Make sure to either reload bacula or stop/restart bacula to make the
configuration changes stick. Then just uncomment the jobs when yo are done
with what you need to do and restart bacula again.
