Look into "bpstart_notify" and "bpend_notify" scripts that you can install 
on your UNIX client. In "/usr/openv/netbackup/bin"
We use these to shutdown an Oracle Database before starting the backup and 
restarting the database
after the backup completes.  This should do what you want.

Subject
[Veritas-bu] NetBackup 6 and shell scripts question






Is there a way to have NetBackup initiate a shell script to shutdown 
services then after that is completed the backup starts.  After the backup 
finishes have NetBackup initiate another script which restarts the 
services? 
 
Running NetBackup server on Suse Enterprise 9 and the client in the 
question is on Solaris 8.
