Starting and Stopping Policies

Veeam Plug-in for Kasten allows you to start a Veeam Kasten policy manually from the Veeam Backup & Replication console. It can be helpful if you want to create an additional snapshot or export without modifying the configured backup policy schedule. Additionally, you can stop a Veeam Kasten backup policy if the processing of applications is about to take too long and you do not want the policy to produce a heavy load on the production environment during business hours.
