Is there still no way to enter a command in that will cancel a process
immediately.  For years we have had to put up with this problem.  There are
cases where we have seen reclamations, backups, or archives where the
process is obviously stalled and we can't kill the process until the current
item that the process is working on completes.  Or we must have a drive to
perform an emergency task, but the drives ate tied up transferring a huge
file from one tape to another.

Is there something with more authority than 'can proc #'?

When you cancel a process of backup stg, the current file
in progress is completed.  Not sure what yuu mean about
"170 GB file is moved" and how do a I see how many GB
have been moved?

Hi *SM-ers

Server: TSM 4.2.2.8 on AIX

When I do a BACKUP STGPOOL a 170GB file is moved.
Is it possible to see how many gigabytes have beend moved (like in Q
SESSION)?

If I cancel the PROCESS does TSM finish the copy of the current file or
does
it
reset the transaction?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards
