hello admins
can one stop anti-virus during windows backups have unix master server how i do this ????
 
You have to you the bostart and boend sscripts to stop the service on the Windows server and then start it back up again after the backup completes.

Syntax will be something like:

bpstart_policyname

net stop AV_Software_Service_Name

bpend_policyname

net start AV_Software_Service_Name

I believe more information can be found in the Client User Guide.
