1   Introduction

This document describes how to lock the backup scheduler. It prevents scheduled backups from occurring. The scheduler can be locked to disable periodic backups during maintenance windows.

If the backup scheduler is locked, it must be unlocked before scheduled backups can run again, refer to Unlock Backup Scheduler.

1.1   Prerequisites

This section describes the prerequisites, which must be fulfilled before using the procedure.

1.1.1   Conditions

The following conditions must apply:

• Attribute adminState is UNLOCKED.
• An Ericsson Command-Line Interface (ECLI) session in Exec mode is in progress.

2   Procedure

To lock the backup scheduler:

1. Navigate to the BrmBackupScheduler managed object, for example:

   >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,BrM=1,BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA,BrmBackupScheduler=SYSTEM_DATA

2. Enter Config mode:

   (BrmBackupScheduler=SYSTEM_DATA)>configure

3. Lock the backup scheduler:

   (config-BrmBackupScheduler=SYSTEM_DATA)>adminState=LOCKED

   Attention!

   Risk of data loss or data corruption.

   Locking the backup scheduler cancels any ongoing scheduled backup.

   Note:  

   The value of the adminState attribute cannot be cleared by the no adminState ECLI command

   
   
4. Commit the change:

   (config-BrmBackupScheduler=SYSTEM_DATA)>commit

5. Verify that the backup scheduler is locked:

   (BrmBackupScheduler=SYSTEM_DATA)>show

   The following is an example output:

   BrmBackupScheduler=SYSTEM_DATA adminState=LOCKED [...] schedulerState=DISABLED <read-only> [...]
