STOP GROUP=

This command terminates all Externalization tasks working on the specified subgroup queue. The subgroup queue continues in released status and a new subtask is automatically started by the subsystem during the next Backstore check. If you are issuing this command to release tape drives or give priority to pending allocations, Externalization should be held first by issuing the SVTn SET BACKSTORE=HOLD console command for the specific subgroup queue.

Note: When the Virtual Volume's group specifies a non-zero RecallAttemptsThreshold the counters are initialized.

Syntax
SVTn STOP Group=nn,SubGroup={Short|Medium|Long}

Where nn is a valid group number.
