Running the backup plan starts the selected task of that plan immediately in spite of its

in the plan runs Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 agent.
Task
The task will be executed immediately in spite of its schedule.
Stop the
running backup
plan/task

Centralized backup plan
Stopping the running backup plan stops all its tasks on all the machines the plan is deployed
to. Thus, all the task operations will be aborted.
The centralized backup plan cannot be stopped manually, if at least one of the machines
included in the plan runs Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 agent.

conversion, etc.). The task enters the Idle state. The task schedule, if created, remains valid.
To complete the operation you will have to run the task once again.
