I like Steven's answer better than mine. ;-)

Mine is to exclude the day for affected clients on my calendar-based backups ... rather tedious, compared to the "nbpemreq -suspend_scheduling" / "nbpemreq -resume_scheduling" method when one has many policies.

Cheers, Wayne

Say you're planning a weekend maintenance and want to suspend backups
but want availability of the backup server in case a restore is
needed. Do you deactivate policies or is some trick to prevent policy
driven backups from starting and at the same time, leave the backup
server available for immediate backups.
