You can stop the volume shredding process from the Interrupt Shredding Task window.

CAUTION:
If you stop the shredding process, you cannot restart the process. Data integrity of the volume is not guaranteed.
Note: We recommend to use the Tasks window to stop the shredding operation if you want faster response.

You must have the Storage Administrator (Provisioning) role to perform this task.

  1. Open the Interrupt Shredding Task window by any of the following ways:

    • Using the Logical Devices window

      Perform either of the following operations:

      • In the Storage Systems tree, select Logical Devices to display the LDEVs tab. Then, click More Actions > Interrupt LDEV Task > Interrupt Shredding Task.
      • On the Actions menu, click Logical Device > Interrupt Shredding Task.

    • Using the Parity Groups window

      Perform either of the following operations:

      • In the Storage Systems tree, select Parity Groups to display the Parity Groups tab. Then, click More Actions > Interrupt Shredding Task.
      • On the Actions menu, click Logical Device > Interrupt Shredding Task.
  2. Verify the displayed settings, and then click Apply.
    The shredding process stops.
    Note: If the shredding operation being performed is interrupted, the end times of following tasks in the Tasks window differ:
    • End time of the shredding task being performed.
    • End time of the task for the interruption of shredding.

      The time difference above is approximately 10 minutes.

      To determine whether the shredding task is finished or not, confirm the status of the task. If Status is Completed or Failed, the shredding task is finished.
