Cancelling/Clearing Tasks

SOLIDWORKS SOLIDWORKS PDM

I Have a task hung, and I cant cancel it etc. it just says cancelling. is the only way to clear it, restarting PDM server?

I believe the only way to fix it is to edit the SQL database. As with all things database related, proceed with caution and make backups before doing anything.
