can you abort a glacier restore job?

Question

Trying to determine whether it is possible to abort a glacier restore job from deep archive. These jobs take several hours to complete.  I know I can get a listing of the jobs in progress via awsCLI - but I haven't found a way to issue an abort to a job if I decide we don't need it any more or I need to restart the restore for some reason.

Answer

Hi There

The restore itself its not possible to cancel.

The option to decrease the time would be to initiate a new restore request with the lower time after the first restore API finish.  This is mentioned on the documentation:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/restoring-objects-retrieval-options.html#restoring-objects-upgrade-tier

`Using Amazon S3 restore speed upgrade, you can change the restore speed to a faster speed while the restore request is in progress. A restore speed upgrade overrides an in-progress restore request with a faster restore tier. You cannot slow down an in-progress restore request.`
