If the request did not affect the database, or if the affect was not damaging, then the impact of a failed abort request is minimal. If the request damaged the database, then correct the damage using one of the following options:
- If the request was embedded in a transaction, abort the transaction by submitting an SQL ABORT statement as a normal SQL request, which backs out the effect of the damaging request.
- If the request was not embedded in a transaction, submit a second request that has the opposite effect of the first, thus returning the database to its state before the damaging request.
