For VSP Gx00 models and VSP Fx00 models, you can stop the volume shredding process from the Interrupt Shredding Task window.

CautionIf you stop the shredding process, you cannot restart the process. Data integrity of the volume is not guaranteed.
NoteWe recommend to use the Tasks window to stop the shredding operation if you want faster response.

    NoteIf the shredding operation being performed is interrupted, the end times of following tasks in the Tasks window differ:
