EMS won't stop sending alerts

A few days ago we got an EMS notice on a power supply. HP came out and changed it out. We still get alarms on the old issue. How do we stop it?

You have to clear the EMS events. Try this:

To show what EMS currently sees as down:

# /opt/resmon/bin/set_fixed -L

To clear all EMS "down" items:

# /opt/resmon/bin/set_fixed -n \*

When I did this, as suggested by another posting, there was nothing "down" and nothing "cleared" and we got the message the next day anyway.
