I've used this process to delete bunches of old policies (not the ideal, but still faster than with the gui) Warning: test this in your non-production test environment first, with a good backup to fall back on. Your mileage may vary! 1: in expert mode, go to the folder where the revisions exist 2: enter "ls -al *.pf | more" 3: copy the filename portion of the first listing into the cut/paste buffer 4: type "rm <paste file name here>.* (this deletes the .wf and .pf files) 5: repeat for each listing.
A variation on this would be to make a safe copy of the policy files that you want to keep by copying them to a temporary folder, then at the console, in the folder where the policies are saved, type "rm *.pf", then "rm *.wf" Then copy the policy files you saved back to their proper folder. I've used the first method, but not the second. -----Original Message----- From: Mailing list for discussion of Firewall-1 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kowalczyk, Thorsten Sent: Thursday, May 29, 2008 6:02 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [FW-1] AW: [FW-1] Database Revion Control I found it by myself! on the CLI you can login with dbver username and passwort. Than you have several options like print_all to identify your Ids With delete id, id, id... you can delete a lot at once. Unfortunately you can't use the minus to define a range of ids. But that works for me.
