Amazon Redshift will no longer support the creation of new Python UDFs starting Patch 198. Existing Python UDFs will continue to function until June 30, 2026. For more information, see the [ blog post ](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/amazon-redshift-python-user-defined-functions-will-reach-end-of-support-after-june-30-2026/). 

# SVL\_TERMINATE
<a name="r_SVL_TERMINATE"></a>

Records the time when a user cancels or terminates a process.

SELECT PG\_TERMINATE\_BACKEND(*pid*), SELECT PG\_CANCEL\_BACKEND(*pid*), and CANCEL *pid* creates a log entry in SVL\_TERMINATE. 

SVL\_TERMINATE is visible only to superusers. For more information, see [Visibility of data in system tables and views](cm_chap_system-tables.md#c_visibility-of-data).

Some or all of the data in this table can also be found in the SYS monitoring view [SYS\_QUERY\_HISTORY](SYS_QUERY_HISTORY.md). The data in the SYS monitoring view is formatted to be easier to use and understand. We recommend that you use the SYS monitoring view for your queries.

| userid | integer  | The user ID of the user running the command. |
