How to cancel a Geolocation update in FireSight Management Console?

Jeremy Baldwin

I've been running a virtual FMC running 6.1.0 in a home lab since ~November.  Right around the time of system install, I tried to manually install a Geolocation update (GeoDB-2016-11-09-002), which for some reason has not yet finished.  Meanwhile, more recent automatic Geolocation updates are occurring normally.  I'm just now getting back around to figuring out why this update claims to have not finished.

So I've got a task that's been running for ~1800 hours that doesn't seem to want to complete, cancel, or fail.  Anyone have ideas on how to kill it off?  It doesn't seem to impact performance at all, it's just a cosmetic nuisance to see in the task window.

I've tried FMC system reboot without effect.  I've tried hunting through the CLI to see if I can find the update running or a directory where I can look at a logfile, but haven't been able to locate any process running that lines up with this update (ps aux | grep -i Geo, for example yields nothing).  I do not see a log directory for this particular Geo update in /var/log/sf, either (first geodb directory I see there is for the 11-14-2016-002 update).

I tried to manually upload and push it, because it's been passed by more recent updates and therefore won't install.

I just pushed the 6.1.0.1-53 update to the system now but that did not clear it either.

Anyone have ideas on how to clear this from the system?

Clearing that requires some modifications into the database. Reach out to TAC for assistance.
