Issue/Introduction

Control Complicate Suite (CCS)

The 'Reporting Database Synchronization Job' is taking a long time to run on your CCS Application Server, and you are wondering what might happen if it is cancelled.

Environment

Release : CCS 12.6.x

Component : Application Server

Resolution

You can right click on the system 'Reporting Database Synchronization Job' and select 'Cancel Job' to stop the job from running.  The 'Reporting Database Synchronization Job' is already scheduled to run each night, so when it runs again it will pick up where the last successful point and continue synchronizing the data to the CCS Reporting database.  

NOTE: If it is cancelled, there is a good chance that the next 'Reporting Database Synchronization Job' will take longer as it is synchronizing additional data since the previous 'Reporting Database Synchronization Job' was cancelled.
