This topic describes how to stop a data synchronization task that you no longer need. After the data synchronization task is stopped, incremental data will not be synchronized to the destination database.

Prerequisites

The data synchronization task is in the Synchronizing, Paused, Synchronization Failed, Performing Initial Synchronization, or Initial Synchronization Failed state.

Precautions

If a data synchronization task is stopped, the task enters the Completed state and no longer synchronizes incremental data from the source database to the destination database.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the DTS console.
  2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Data Synchronization.
  3. At the top of the Synchronization Tasks page, select the region where the destination instance resides.
    Select a region
  4. Find the target data synchronization task, and choose More > Stop Task in the Actions column.
    Stop a data synchronization task
