    Hello everyone,


    I would like to please help me with a doubt that I have, I want to delete the Events from the servers and as such from the console can not, I was investigating and I did not find the procedure, the only thing I found is that in the Enforce Host Server on route:
    E: \ SymantecDLP \ Protect \ tools \ sql
    Come a few .sql scripts
    ClearSystemEvents.sql
    Someone has performed this procedure or where I can consult to perform this procedure.
    Attached 2 screenshots.


    Thank you very much for your attention.
     

    Regards.

    Hello,

     I never saw any official procedure for this script (as far as i know it is only official way to clean server events). You must execute this script using your usual tool (sqlplus , dbexplorer, ......) .

     

    below feedback available on support site:

    ClearSystemEvents.sql - This will clear all records from the systemevents table.  Systemevents table is used as a log by DLP to record system events for troubleshooting.  There is no ongoing provision for periodically clearing out this table.  It will grow and grow and grow.

     

     Regards.
