Netbackup service window time ?
We have a small problem with netbackup, we want the running jobs that aren't
finished at a sertain time to stop because otherwise we have problemens with
hour customers ( due servicewindow )
Is it possible to enter a time within netbackup so all running jobs will
be canceled, or do i have to stop the services on the master ?

No.
It is a common problem, but NetBackup provides no solution.
One could write a script that understood your backup windows, scraped
data from NetBackup command outputs and issued NetBackup commands to
cancel the backup jobs about to go outside their "servicewindow".
On the other hand, that sounds like a big, fragile solution to a "small
problem" ... certainly one I'd try to avoid.
