Stopping running migration tasks

Data migration tasks can be stopped during execution. Tasks can be stopped in the following two
ways:

Normal stop - A task stop request is issued and processing that is currently being performed by
the storage system is continued. Processing that has not been started is stopped. It might take a
long time after a task stop request is issued before the task stops completely.

Immediate stop - A task stop request is issued and all processes are stopped even if storage system
processing is being performed. Data being migrated remains in the target volume, so you must
delete the data in the target volume.

The storage administrator checks the task progress and results in the Tasks & Alerts tab allowing the
schedule of a task that is waiting to be changed.

When registering migration tasks, storage administrators can set email notification upon migration
task completion (success, failure, or stopped).

To stop a migration task while it is running:

1.

In the Tasks & Alerts tab, click All Tasks.

2.

Select the tasks that you want to stop and click Stop Tasks.

3.

In the confirmation dialog box, click OK.

4.

In the task list window, confirm that the status of the task is stopped.

NOTE:

To access the Task Details dialog box to see the point at which a task was stopped, click
All Tasks in the Tasks & Alerts tree and click the task name link in the summary column of
the Tasks tab.
