Disabling and Enabling Agent Backups

You can disable local backup for a CTERA Agent, including:

• The currently running local backup for the CTERA Agent
• All scheduled automatic local backups for the CTERA Agent

When an agent is disabled, it remains connected and can still be managed centrally; however, no backups are performed.

   If local backup is currently running, it is paused. All future automatic backups for the CTERA Agent are suspended.
