Deleting all flows at one time
To delete all Flow Vision flows at one time, complete the following steps.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter flow --delete all.
You are then prompted to confirm this action.
3. Enter y.
All user-defined Flow Vision flows will be deleted and cannot be recovered. Predefined flows will not
be deleted, but they will be deactivated.
NOTE
You can compel the deletion of flows by adding the -force keyword to the command. Using this
keyword causes Flow Vision to not issue a confirmation prompt.
The following example deletes all flows without prompting you for confirmation.
switch:admin> flow --delete all -force
Resetting flow statistics
Flow Vision allows you to clear (reset) the flow statistics record for each feature individually or as a
group.
NOTE
Clearing the Flow Mirror statistics for a flow also clears the mirrored frames.
Clearing the statistics for all flow features
To clear all the statistics for a flow, complete the following steps.
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions.
2. Enter flow --reset flow_name -feature all.
You will not be asked to confirm this action.
The following example clears only the Flow Monitor statistics for the flow named
“Flow4”.
