Can i stop jobs from Azure Backup portal

Question

Hi

I have a couple of backups on premises with MARS agent. One of them is affecting the internet perfomance and i want to stop it from the Azure portal (i dont want to limit the BW that i know is an option):

I go to the next path:

Inicio -> Almacenes de Recovery Services -> bk-servidor - Elementos de copia de seguridad -> Elementos de copia de seguridad (Azure Backup Agent)

When i go there and click on the job that is in progress and i want to stop, it show me an option "Cancel" but it appears disabled, then i cannot stop the job. I know that from the agent installed in the server or workstation i could do it, but i would want to do it from the Azure Portal.

¿ Why the option seems to be disabled ?. Its important to clarify that i am global administratior (owner) of that suscription

¿ Is there other way to stop a job from the Azure Portal ?

Thanks in advance

Currently stopping a backup job from Azure portal is not an option. However, you can do so using PowerShell - Stop-AzureRmBackupJob but this command doesn't pause the backup job instead it cancels it
