Canceling a Process
If you have the appropriate rights, you can manually cancel any process that is currently running. To 
cancel a process, choose the Activity View Results, highlight the appropriate process, right-click and 
choose Cancel.
Executing and Archiving Process Instances
The Process Orchestrator provides settings that control:
  •
Whether the server saves the process state after the process completes. 
  •
Whether the process is restartable in case of a server restart or failover. 
Both the archival and resume options affect performance (how much data is saved into the database and 
how often). However, only the resume option controls whether the process is restartable. If the process 
is set to “archive” but “not resume”, it will save the data to the database but will not restart when the 
server restarts.
To specify the archival and resume settings for an existing process:
Step 1
In the Process Editor, choose Toolbox > Processes, highlight the process, and choose Process > Edit.
Step 2
In the process properties dialog, click the Options tab.
Step 3
In the Execution section, if you want the server to resume the process that is running when server restarts 
or fails over, click Resume execution if interrupted.
Step 4
In the Archival section, choose one of the archival options:
  •
Never archive any instances—The process instance is not stored upon completion
  •
Only archive failed instances—Only the failed process instances are stored upon completion
  •
Archive all completed instances—The process is stored upon completion
  •
Archive process instances (skip activity instances) only—Removes the activity instances from 
archival and stores the process instance upon completion
  •
Archive based on condition—The process instance is stored upon completion based on the selected 
condition. For example, ([Global Variables.Archive All Processes] = true)
Step 5
Click Save 
 to save your changes.
