[gpfsug-discuss] Mistakenly AFM resync triggered: should I stop it?

[Leonardo Sala]

Dear all,

I do have a possibly stupid question, based on something stupid I did. 
During a procedure to recover AFM transfers (which stopped for still to 
be investigated reasons), I triggered by mistake a resync operation on 
an healthy SW fileset (state: Inactive). The AFM cache in this case is 
big, so this has triggered a big backlog and quite some network 
activity. afmPrefetchThreshold is set to 0, so I am not too scared about 
partially zero-filled data files. But what would it be the best course 
of action now? Should I just let it run (ETA: ~20 hours, give or take), 
or try to stop it? Also, given that this is some experimental data, what 
would the safest course of action?

Thanks a lot!

cheers

leo
