Clear an activity

Use the following procedure to change the state of an activity (usually an alert) to Cleared.

NOTE:

Clearing an activity does not delete it.

Typically, you would clear an activity when the alert is no longer a concern and the health of the resource is not affected by that event. Because a Cleared activity is hidden from view, changing the state to Cleared helps reduce the number of activities displayed.

NOTE:

You cannot clear a Locked activity.

Prerequisites
  • Infrastructure administrator, Network administrator, Server administrator, Storage administrator, and Software administrator

Procedure
  1. From the main menu, select Activity to navigate to the screen.
  2. To select a single activity, click a row.

    To select multiple activities, press and hold the Ctrl key.

  3. Select Actions > Clear.
  4. Verify that the activity you cleared is no longer listed on the Activity screen.

    You can view all cleared activities when you filter activites.

Alternatively, you can clear a single activity by clicking the x in the last column of its activity list entry.
