Terminate individual tasks

Hello,

In Vantage we can kill individual tasks by looking up their PID in the SysTask table and terminating that PID on the OS side.

Does anybody know if there is a way to kill specific tasks in E10? I have tried adding the systasknum to the SysTaskKill table but this does not appear to work. Since everything appears to run through the IIS Worker Process, I cannot see a way to stop the task without stopping the whole AppPool.

Why do this? There are times when I wish to kill a task without effecting other tasks that may be running. Using “Delete” in System Monitor does not appear to always work.

Thank you,
Andy

Like in E9 you can set Task Agent to run in a separate app pool. Then you can recycle that app pool without affecting the main users.
I don’t have the instructions handy but support does

Thank you, that is a good option.

Even though it will kill all running tasks, I like the idea of splitting the App pools. I will be looking into this for our production environment for sure!
