CANCEL OPERATIONS

The CANCEL OPERATIONS command cancels a specific TMF file-recovery or dump-

files operation.

operation-number

is an integer that identifies the operation to be canceled, as described under

“Usage Guidelines.” The lowest operation number assigned is 1, and the highest

is 100.

Security Restrictions

You can issue the CANCEL OPERATIONS command only if you are a member of the

super user group.

TMF State Requirement

Before you can enter the CANCEL OPERATIONS command, TMF must be started.

Usage Guidelines

The CANCEL OPERATIONS command affects only TMF file-recovery and dump-files

operations. To remove other types of operations, you must use the STOP TMF,

ABRUPT command.

TMF recognizes each specific instance of a particular kind of operation (such as a TMF

file-recovery or dump-files operation) as a unique operation and assigns an operation

serial number that distinguishes this operation from other recent operations of the

same type. If you use the NOWAIT option in the command that generates an

operation, TMFCOM displays this number at your terminal. You can subsequently

cancel a file-recovery or dump-files operation by entering this number in the

operation-number parameter of the CANCEL OPERATIONS command.

The operation numbers generated are re-used, to keep the number of digits low as an

aid in remembering these numbers; after the highest number allowed (100) is

assigned, TMF returns to the lowest possible number (1) to identify the next operation.

For more information about operation numbers and how they are assigned and

displayed, see the discussion of the DISPLAY OPERATIONS command.
