This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM System Storage products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.
Welcome to the IBM Ideas Portal (https://www.ibm.com/ideas) - Use this site to find out additional information and details about the IBM Ideas process and statuses.
IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com) - Use this site to view all of your ideas, create new ideas for any IBM product, or search for ideas across all of IBM.
ideasibm@us.ibm.com - Use this email to suggest enhancements to the Ideas process or request help from IBM for submitting your Ideas.
Some of this is already available:
CANCEL SESSION ALL
CANCEL RESTORE ALL
CANCEL REQUEST ALL
CANCEL REPLICATION
CANCEL EXPIRATION
IDENTIFY DUP FILEPOOL NUMPROC=0
We're still stuck on CANCEL EXPORT (have to put in a name)
These processes have to be cancelled one at a time:
* BA STG
* RECLAIM
* CONVERT
* MIGRATE
* MOVE
* RECONCILE
* AUDIT
* REPAIR
* SHRED
* CHECKIN
* CHECKOUT
etc etc.
There is still no way to cancel a RUN script.
If the database is on SSD, it may be faster to HALT and restart TSM.
Externally, this could be done in a variety of ways, including:
dsmadmc -id=ADMIN -pa=ADMIN -dataonly=yes "select 'can proc',PROCESS_NUM from processes" \
| dsmadmc -id=ADMIN -pa=ADMIN -dataonly=yes -tab
However, that still does not prevent the next commands in a RUN script from starting.
There are messy ways to work with that too:
serial
select * from SESSIONS where CLIENT_NAME="ADMINSUPERCANCEL"
if (rc_ok) exit
parallel
/* some code here */
serial
select * from SESSIONS where CLIENT_NAME="ADMINSUPERCANCEL"
if (rc_ok) exit
Having both of these internal to ADSM / TSM / Protect would be a long-desired goodness.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=81517 is similar to this RFE.
it would be nice to have a cancel process command by process name. IBM has implemented a cancel replication and expiration commands.
why not cancel process commands for all the other process types?
