# Clear an activity

Use the following procedure to change the state of an activity (usually an alert) to `Cleared`.

| NOTE: Clearing an activity does not delete it.

Typically, you would clear an activity when the alert is no longer a concern and the health of the resource is not affected by that event. Because a `Cleared` activity is hidden from view, changing the state to `Cleared` helps reduce the number of activities displayed.

| NOTE: You cannot clear a `Locked` activity.

Prerequisites

- Required privileges: Network administrator, Server administrator, or Infrastructure administrator

Clearing an activity

1. From the main menu, select Activity to navigate to the screen.

2. To select a single activity, click a row.

   To select multiple activities, press and hold the Ctrl key.

3. Select Actions→Clear.

4. Verify that the activity you cleared is no longer listed on the Activity screen.

   You can view all cleared activities when you filter activites.

Alternatively, you can clear a single activity by clicking the x in the last column of its activity list entry.
