Canceling a job that has not completed in the Activity Monitor

The following procedure describes how to cancel a job that has not completed.

To cancel a job that has not completed in the Activity Monitor

  1. In the NetBackup Administration Console, open the Activity Monitor and select the Jobs tab.
  2. Select the job that has not completed that you want to cancel. It may be a job that is in the Queued, Re-Queued, Active, Incomplete, or Suspended state.
  3. Select Actions > Cancel Job.

    If the selected job is a parent job, all the children of that parent job are canceled as well.

    In most cases, a canceled child job cancels only that job and allows the other child jobs to continue. One exception is multiple copies created as part of a policy or a storage lifecycle policy: canceling a child job cancels the parent job and all child jobs.

  4. To cancel all jobs in the jobs list that have not completed, click Actions > Cancel All Jobs.
