    How do I clear still Infected from my Home Page.
    It is showing more than 5,00,000 I cannot manually clear 1000 by thousand from Logs page.
    Can I do this via some SQL script or is there a shortcut ?

    Hi Brian,

    I am aware of this process but I am looking for something which can be done in 1 click using any SQL script or something. Clearing that many infected status will take huge amount of time.As you can't imagine how super fast my SEPM console and SEPM srerver is.

    Try this

    Delete from SEM_Agent where INFECTED <> '1'

    Or update INFECTED = 0

    Hi Sandra,

    My SEP is Ru6mp3 not SEP 12.1,

    Hi Brian,

    I wont be able to test this query on my production SEPM without testing in test environment. Can anyone of you confirm if Brian's query works as if anything goes wrong my job will be at stake.
