Is there any way to cancel a system restore, it appears to be hung at  Unzipping migration package stage for 1.5 hours now.  I think the file system/network glitched during the process.  There is no cancel in the UI, no jobs running.

I’m not aware of a cancel. Perhaps stopping/restarting the FME Flow services might allow you to restart, noting that you will need to ‘overwrite’ next time your restore

Thanks, the process did start processing at a little shy of the 2 hour mark, I do not remember it taking that long to start processing after the Unzipping line in the log file in previous migrations, but it eventually worked.

​@mferwerda3 - do you have any idea of the size of the backup? I’m currently at the 3 hour mark for unzipping, trying to decide whether to try and kill the process or leave it a bit longer.
