Canceling an Enterprise Vault backup job from the Activity monitor
You can cancel an Enterprise Vault backup from the Activity monitor. If you choose to cancel a backup job, you should understand that the following applies:
When you choose to cancel an Enterprise Vault agent job, all child jobs are canceled. The selected job is canceled along with any sibling job that is active or queued. If a parent job exists, it waits for all of the children jobs to get canceled and then the status of the parent becomes canceled. The status of the sibling jobs that completed before you canceled the job does not change and you can use their images for a restore.
If you choose to cancel a full backup that involves an Enterprise Vault SQL Server database (such as a directory database), then you must make sure that you exit that backup. Then you must make sure that you take a full backup before you start the next cumulative backup.
