Is it safe to kill a task with wai type Backupthread?

Hi everyone,

I am performing backups of all my user databases via maintenance plan and SQL Agent job, but I can see in the Activity Monitor that one of the database backups has 4 tasks in it - 2 are in running state and 2 are in suspended state with wait_type ="Backupthread". All tasks have Command = "Backup database". There is no blocking in the current tasks.

Is it safe to kill the suspended backup tasks or should I wait for them to complete? If I kill those tasks will it cancel the whole job or just this backup?

Thanks in advance
