Delete all ACS Alarms?

Andrew Bailey

I had a condition where I was getting thousands of alarms on my ACS 5.2.0.26.6 VM. I have over 5000 AAA health and 5000 system status alarms. Is there any way to clear all alarms. When I delete multiple pages of 100 alarms each, the total count doesn't even decrease!

The alarm was no health updates received for the last hour. I restarted the box the the alerts stopped..

I had this issue too, I found a way to increase the amount of alerts that can be deleted in one go.

I am running ACS5.8

using Chrome I access the ACS and the alert inbox.

I then launch the Developer tool (F12) and select the elements tab.

CTRL F to find and search for Per Page, Expand that section and you will see the 10, 25, 50, 100 options

Change in 100's to 2000, do not close the developer console.

On the ACS alert page Select the new 2000 option and press go

You can then do the mass select of all displayed alerts and delete.

You will need to search and modify the 100 again in the developer console to repeat.

you could try setting the option to a higher number, but I was not getting a proper response when I increased to 4000.

Thank you, this saved me hours of work!
