This BRARCHIVE command option aborts archive runs. To abort BRARCHIVE, you open a separate command window to enter the command shown below.

            brarchive -g|-gun|-abort stop|term|kill

Default value: none

Possible values:

  • stop: causes a soft abort

  • term: causes a normal abort

  • kill: causes a hard abort

The abort generates a short log file in the relevant log file directory:

  • UNIX: <saparch>/<coded timestamp>.aab

  • Windows: <saparch>\<coded timestamp>.aab

The aborted archives are marked as faulty. However, you might be able to later use them for restore, especially if the abort was soft.
