Cancel a SQL application agent protection or restore job
Starting with
PowerProtect Data Manager 19.9, you can cancel an application agent protection job from the
PowerProtect Data Manager UI. The job must be in a queued or running state. The protection job runs for a primary backup that is configured through an application agent protection policy.
About this task
You can perform two types of application agent job cancellations in the
PowerProtect Data Manager UI:
Cancellation of a job group that includes one or more asset jobs.
Cancellation of an individual asset job.
NOTE
When a job completes before the cancel request reaches the application host, the status of the canceled job transitions to either success or failure.
You can also cancel a queued restore job. However, you cannot cancel a restore job that is in progress. The restore job status transitions to either success or failure based on the restore status on the application host.
You can cancel many other types of jobs, in addition to protection and restore jobs. The
PowerProtect Data Manager Administration and User Guide provides more information.
Perform the following steps to cancel an application agent protection job in the
PowerProtect Data Manager UI.
