Viewing Cluster Metrics During Load Operations
When you view cluster performance during load operations, you can identify queries that are consuming
resources and take action to mitigate their effect.You can terminate a load if you don't want it to run to
completion.
Note
The ability to terminate queries and loads in the Amazon Redshift console requires specific
permission. If you select the Amazon Redshift Read Only AWS managed policy or create a
custom policy in IAM, and you want users to be able to terminate queries and loads, make sure
to add the redshift:CancelQuerySession action to the policy. Users who have the Amazon
Redshift Full Access policy already have the necessary permission to terminate queries and
loads. For more information about actions in IAM policies for Amazon Redshift, see IAM Policy
Actions for Amazon Redshift (p. 118).
