Cancel scheduled backup

[asandros]

Hello,

How can I cencel scheduled backup during backup creation if server is very high loaded at this time? I tried to kill backup process but it started again.

Thank you.

Scheduled backups are executed as a cron jobs, so you can try to stop the crond daemon with
/etc/init.d/crond stop

Stopping cron daemon will not terminate forked processes. To kill the scheduled backup you need to find whole tree of forked processes with 'ps axwwf' command. at the root of this tree is '/usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/backupmng' process. To stop backup completely you need to pass IPs of all members of the tree to 'kill -9' command:

kill -9 3453 3435 3254 ...
