Hi all,
Is it possible to tell a client to stop a list of services in a specific
order before starting a backup job? Then start them up after backup run
is complete.
Bacula server runs on Debian 11 and the client on Windows Server 2019
Standard.
You could use client-side RunBefore Job and RunAfterJob scripts. (i.e,
"RunsOnClient = yes" in the RunBeforeJob/RunAfterJob directive)
Obviously this would need careful testing, and you face the issue that
if a job fails for any reason, then those services may not get
restarted. If they are mission-critical, this would likely be a problem
and you would need to implement a failsafe mechanism for restarting them
after the backup if not running (a cron job perhaps).
