Canceling long-running Db2® queries

On occasions, when you are working with very large amounts of Db2® data, you may experience long response times associated with the FM/Db2 query that FM/Db2 is processing.

When you are using one of the following FM/Db2 utilities, you can use the attention interrupt key to cancel the query.

Pressing the attention interrupt key when Db2® is processing cancels the current Db2® function. Any uncommitted changes made since the start of the unit of work are lost.
