CANCEL JOB

Warning:
As of April 12, 2019, CockroachDB v1.1 is no longer supported. For more details, refer to the Release Support Policy.

New in v1.1: The CANCEL JOB statement lets you stop long-running jobs, which include enterprise BACKUP and RESTORE tasks.

Limitations

  • This feature currently only works with enterprise features. However, in the future, we plan to let you cancel any job, including schema changes.
  • When an enterprise RESTORE is canceled, partially restored data is properly cleaned up. This can have a minor, temporary impact on cluster performance.

Required Privileges

By default, only the root user can cancel a job.
