Kill a task

You must be logged on as a cluster administrator or as a consumer administrator or consumer user for the application's consumer. The task must be either running or pending.

You can only kill a task that is in a running or pending state. If your session is set to abort if a task fails, killing a task does not abort the session (the task must be in an error state to abort the session).

  1. Click Symphony Workload > Monitor Workload.

    The Applications page displays.

  2. Click the application name that is running the session you want.

    A list of sessions displays. You may need to change your filter settings to see the session you want.

  3. Find and click the session ID where the task is running or pending.

    A list of tasks displays.

  4. (Optional) Change your filter settings to display running or pending tasks only.
  5. For the task you want to kill, select Actions > Kill.
  6. (Optional) Add a comment about your reason for killing the task.
  7. Click Kill and confirm that you want to kill this task.
