Description

Per http://www.katello.org/docs/3.0/user_guide/backup/

The online backup asks the user to "avoid publishing, adding, or deleting content views, promoting content view versions, adding, changing, or deleting sync-plans, and adding, deleting, or syncing repositories during this time".

Can katello-backup acquire foreman locks for those tasks so that no new ones can be started?

I've no idea how to ensure that those locks are removed on a restore, but this feels like a safer approach given that users may or may not be aware of ongoing online backups.

I believe you can stop foreman-tasks and that may prevent new tasks from being allowed. I would give that a try first.

Let me know if that helps!
