Canceling a Transfer Package

Cancel a transfer package for a disk import transfer job.

If you shipped a transfer package, but have changed your mind about uploading the data, you can cancel a transfer package. Before canceling a transfer package, you must first cancel the transfer disk associated with that transfer package. Oracle cannot process canceled transfer packages. Oracle returns canceled transfer packages to the sender.
