Delete all "report summary" with wildcard

dklement — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 10:26:52 GMT

Hello everyone
Connect with the PA-500 through ssh, and when I run the command "delete report summary predefined report-name file-name" can not delete pdf file reports except one by one, but I'd like to delete all predefined pdf reports with one command. Is there any wilcard?

Thank you in advance for your help and information
Good

If you should be able to use *.pdf to delete all of the .pdf file reports.

Thank you. I try before but "*" returne invalid syntax. See below.

admin@PA-500> delete report summary report-name predefined file-name *.pdf
*.pdf is not a valid name.

Invalid syntax.

There have been some bugs reported with using the wild card but I was able to do it from PANs running both 3.0.8 and 3.1

admin@aureo_kestrel_243(active)> delete report summary report-name predefined file-name *.pdf

Successfully removed '*.pdf'

There is another command you can do which will delete all files up to the ending date you choose:

admin@AK_Right(active)> delete report summary report-name test file-name 86400s-ending-2008090

Successfully removed '86400s-ending-2008090*'

A bug has been identified in 3.1 which may prevent the above from working. It is fixed in 3.1.1 due out at the end of April.
