What happens to sensor jobs that have started processing when a Discovery is canceled?

• A. They continue to process until completion
• B. They are paused
• C. They are immediately terminated
• D. They are moved to a queue

Answer: (C)

When a Discovery is canceled, any sensor jobs that have already started processing are immediately terminated. This means that all ongoing activities related to the Discovery are halted at that moment. The rationale behind this is to ensure that no further data collection or processing occurs after the cancellation decision is made. Immediate termination prevents resources from being unnecessarily utilized and maintains system integrity by avoiding partial data capture or inconsistencies. Contrastingly, other outcomes like continuing to process until completion, being paused, or being moved to a queue would not align with the designed behavior of the Discovery process once canceled. The focus is on ensuring that the Discovery lifecycle is clearly defined, and immediate termination of sensor jobs is a part of that operational design to maintain efficiency and clarity in the Discovery activities.
