Hi,
I right click, choose 'Cancel Job' but no response. I have job in the queue waiting for a tape for over 2 weeks.
Is there another method to cancel a job. I know if I reboot, the job will cancel.
Running Netbackup 7.1.0.1.

If you do not have any active jobs running you can run 'nbrbutil -resetAll' from the master server, which should kill that. Also you do not have to restart the entire server. A restart of just nbu should take care of that.
I've had many times where there is an oustanding tape mount request displayed in the bottom half of the Device Monitor, and the job will not cancel until I right-click the tape mount and select "deny".
You may not have this issue, but its worth checking.
DOCUMENTATION: How to manually remove jobs from the NetBackup Activity Monitor which are in a queued state, and cannot be canceled or killed, or removed by cycling the NetBackup services/daemons.

LOL - install the WINDOWS version of the admin console - it will often allow you to kill a job that the JAVA admin console will not.
The command line options work as well - just be very carefull!
That's strange, but what ever works :D
Sometimes I go to the media server running the job and find the bptm & bpbrm processes related to that job and whack 'em! (kill).
