Storage Virtual Machines : Protection : SnapMirror : Managing mirror relationships for Data ONTAP 8.2 : Aborting a mirror transfer
Aborting a mirror transfer
You can abort a volume replication operation before the data transfer is complete. You can abort a scheduled update, a manual update, or an initial data transfer.
Steps 
1.
From the home page, double-click the appropriate storage system.
2.
Expand the Storage Virtual Machines hierarchy in the left navigation pane.
3.
In the navigation pane, select the Storage Virtual Machine (SVM) that contains the destination volume and click Protection.
4.
Select the relationship for which you want to stop the data transfer, and click Operations > Abort.
5.
Select Yes, I want to abort the transfer to confirm the operation.
6.
Select Keep any partially transferred data to retain the data that is already transferred to the destination volume.
7.
Click Abort.
8.
If you are aborting data transfers on an Infinite Volume, click Run in Background to run the operation in the background.
It takes longer to abort data transfers of Infinite Volumes than of a FlexVol volume.
Result 
The Transfer Status is displayed as Aborting until the operation is complete. After the operation is complete, the Transfer Status is displayed as Idle.
