You can abort an active data protection transfer when you want to stop a SnapMirror replication that is in progress. You can also clear the restart checkpoint for a transfer if it is not a baseline transfer. You might abort a transfer when it conflicts with another operation, such as a volume move.
You cannot abort volumes relationships that are protected by the Consistency Group. |
What you'll need
-
You must have the Application Administrator or Storage Administrator role.
-
You must have set up Workflow Automation.
The abort action does not display in the following instances:
-
If RBAC settings do not allow this action: for example, if you have only operator privileges
-
When the volume ID is unknown: for example, when you have an intercluster relationship and the destination cluster has not yet been discovered
You cannot clear the restart checkpoint for a baseline transfer.
