Is the server Action Log immutable?
Hello! Is the server Action Log absolutely immutable? Meaning, if you make a mistake in handling a server (VM) and it shows up in the Action Log, is there any way to remove that entry? I understand that the Action Log is kept in a database but am searching in vain for an API call that will allow such entries to be modified or deleted as opposed to merely displayed. What workarounds might exist? Thanks! Enjoy! John M. Linebarger, PhD, MBA Principal Member of Technical Staff Sandia National Laboratories (Office) 505-845-8282
