[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk-list Digest, Vol 60, Issue 21

[Shawn Maceno]

Thanks, Todd.  I can't even get the 'completed actions' screen to come up.  I don't ever get the opportunity to select items to archive, then delete.

Shawn,

If you're just trying to delete them, I would first archive them then delete. Spacewalk 1.8 added this feature.

I had to select 100 at a time after I archived them though, or I would get the same errors. I had over 15000 actions and was able to archive them all at once, then I deleted by selecting 100 at a time.

I also then went to 'Task Schedules' and cleaned up or changed how often some tasks run.

hope this helps?
