Hi Manoj,
You could use the DPM Shell command Stop-Job - see below for a description:
NAME
    Stop-Job
SYNOPSIS
    Stops a Windows PowerShell background job.
SYNTAX
    Stop-Job [[-InstanceId] <Guid[]>] [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<Common
    Parameters>]
    Stop-Job [-Job] <Job[]> [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters
    >]
    Stop-Job [[-Name] <string[]>] [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonPara
    meters>]
    Stop-Job [-Id] <Int32[]> [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameter
    s>]
    Stop-Job [-State {NotStarted | Running | Completed | Failed | Stopped | Blo
    cked}] [-PassThru] [-Confirm] [-WhatIf] [<CommonParameters>]
DESCRIPTION
    The Stop-Job cmdlet stops Windows PowerShell background jobs that are in pr
    ogress. You can use this cmdlet to stop all jobs or stop selected jobs base
    d on their name, ID, instance ID, or state, or by passing a job object to S
    top-Job.
    You can use Stop-Job to stop jobs that were started by using Start-Job or t
    he AsJob parameter of Invoke-Command. When you stop a background job, Windo
    ws PowerShell completes all tasks that are pending in that job queue and th
    en ends the job. No new tasks are added to the queue after this command is
    submitted.
    This cmdlet does not delete background jobs. To delete a job, use Remove-Jo
    b.

    To see the examples, type: "get-help Stop-Job -examples".

Within the DPM Shell, if you type Get-Command you will then see all of the available commands that are provided within the DPM Shell Module. For futher information on a particular command, simply type the name of the command put
-? after it - e.g. Stop-Job -?
Hope this helps!
