We have a transaction that has been running for more than 5 hours. We are running out of disk space. The session has been killed but it is still waiting for IO_COMPLETION. Actually the wait_type just changed to PAGEIOLATCH_EX. How can I terminate the suspended SQL Server transaction? I am not worried about losing data since all of it can be repopulated. session_id: 54 STATUS: suspended blocked by: 0 wait_type: PAGEIOLATCH_EX Elapsed Time (in Sec): 19750.420000 open_transaction_count: 2
