Deleting Evweb event subscriptions
You must periodically delete event subscriptions that are not required. You can delete a single
event subscription or multiple event subscriptions at a time.
Deleting an event subscription using the GUI
To delete an event subscription, complete the following steps:
1. Repeat steps 1-5 from “Launching Evweb for administration” (page 50).
2. Select Delete subscription in the action pane on the top right corner of the Event Subscription
Administration page.
The Delete subscriptions page is displayed.
3. Select the event subscriptions you want to delete, by selecting the appropriate check boxes.
4. Select Delete on the Delete subscription page.
The event subscriptions are deleted and a confirmation message is displayed.
5. Click OK on the confirmation message window.
NOTE: You cannot delete HP Advised event subscriptions and Admin Defined event subscriptions.
For more information on deleting an event subscription using the HP SMH GUI, select Help on the
action pane of the Delete event subscription page.
NOTE: HP recommends deleting all unwanted event subscriptions. Retaining a large number of
event subscriptions may increase the size of the Event Archive, and may affect the tasks you perform
using Event subscriptions administration.
Deleting an event subscription using the CLI
To delete an event subscription using the CLI, enter the following command at the HP-UX prompt:
# evweb subscribe -D -f -n <subscription name>
NOTE: The -n switch is mandatory.
Where:
-D is an option used to delete event subscriptions.
-n is a switch used to specify a name for an event subscriptions.
-f is a switch used to force the command. This switch can be used only with the -D option. If
the -f switch is not used, Evweb prompts for a confirmation before deleting an event
subscription.
A message stating that the execution of the evweb subscribe command was successful is
displayed on the screen.
NOTE: Using the CLI, you can delete only one event subscription at a time.
For more information on deleting event subscriptions using the CLI, see evweb_subscribe(1).
