You had a DB issue (running out of space, for example), and due to that are seeing tasks stuck in Progress. How can the tasks be cancelled or resubmitted?
Release: 14.x
Component: IDMGR
To cancel an in-progress task:
1. Go to View Submitted tasks...
2. Select and Click the in-progress task.
3. Click the box "Cancel this Task".
4. It will return with "Cancel Task...? Yes / No.
5. Click Yes.
If you do not see the Cancel / Resubmit options within a specific task, this may need to be configured.
Directions to configure the View Submitted Tasks can be found here:

Note that not all in-progress tasks will successfully cancel--it depends on why/how they became stuck in-progress. In the above case, due to the DB issues, the tasks may have been corrupted.
RESUBMIT In Progress Tasks:
> Manual option:
Under System > Task Runtime Management > Resubmit Tasks
You are able to schedule resubmission from this manual process as well.
> Automatic Resubmission on Server Restart:
Configuration > Configure Task Resubmission Policy:
The success of resubmission will depend on the health of the in-progress task--not all in-progress tasks will resubmit successfully, and no tasks in the 'audit' state will be resubmitted.
