A customer wants to clean up the HP SIM database , but must keep events from the last 180 days complying with regulations. How can you delete events older than 180 days to keep the database clean…

The correct answer is B. Create a collection to select events older than 180 days, and write a task to delete events on that collection. For every system that is discovered in HP SIM, an event is created that cannot be deleted (the Discovered System event) until the system is deleted. If you are managing 1,500 systems, this means that 1,500 events are automatically generated before any SNMP traps are received…

Explanation

For every system that is discovered in HP SIM, an event is created that cannot be deleted (the Discovered System event) until the system is deleted. If you are managing 1,500 systems, this means that 1,500 events are automatically generated before any SNMP traps are received. These Discovered System events can be cleared so that they can be easily filtered out. This can be performed automatically by creating a collection to filter all events older than X days, then creating a task to delete events from that collection.
