Delete a rule for an event filter

Availability: This command is available to cluster administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

The event filter rule delete command deletes a rule from an event filter. The position of all the rules following the deleted rule is updated to maintain a contiguous sequence. Use event filter show command to view the filters and the rules associated with them.

Parameters

-filter-name <text> - Filter Name

Use this mandatory parameter to specify the name of the event filter from which you want to delete the rule. Rules cannot be deleted from system-defined filters.

-position <integer> - Rule Position

Use this mandatory parameter to specify the position of the rule to delete from the filter. It should be in the range (1..n-1), where 'n' is the position of the last rule, which is an implicit rule.

Examples

The following example deletes a rule at position 2 from an existing event filter "emer-and-wafl":
