[laith_real]

Hi Everyone,

I'm using the HP oneview version 1.20.01. I would like to ask if it possiple to remove the old critical activities from dashboard. Becouse they're already resolved.

Could anyone help me with that please?

Thanks in advance.

Hello @laith_real, and welcome to the HPE OneView Community Forums.

Once alerts for resources have been resolved, and were previously in a 'Locked' state, the appliance will automtically set their state to 'Cleared'.  However, for the other alerts, you can go to the Activity for the resource, and set the State to 'Cleared'.

Thanks chris. Can I delete the activity after the state change to "cleared"? Becuase  when I checked the history of the activity they still exist as Cleared state.

They are there for historical purposes.  A "Cleared" Alert does not report any critical or warning State of a resource.  While we don't provide the ability to delete activity from the UI, you can via the DELETE /rest/alerts REST API.
