Via the GUI there is no way to clear out the events in the backup activity. One way though is that you can truncate the "OpsCenter".backup_reports
then synchronize the backup data to just have the most recent available.
http://docs.datastax.com/en/opscenter/6.1/opsc/online_help/services/syncBackupData.html
the following is the keyspace table for the `"OpsCenter".backup_reports:
CREATE TABLE "OpsCenter".backup_reports ( week text, event_time timestamp, backup_id text, type text, destination text, deleted_at timestamp, full_status text, keyspaces text, status text, PRIMARY KEY (week, event_time, backup_id, type, destination) ) WITH CLUSTERING ORDER BY (event_time DESC, backup_id ASC, type ASC, destination ASC) AND bloom_filter_fp_chance = 0.01 AND caching = {'keys': 'ALL', 'rows_per_partition': 'NONE'} AND comment = '{"version": [6, 1, 0], "info": "OpsCenter management data."}' AND compaction = {'class': 'org.apache.cassandra.db.compaction.SizeTieredCompactionStrategy', 'max_threshold': '32', 'min_threshold': '4'} AND compression = {'chunk_length_in_kb': '64', 'class': 'org.apache.cassandra.io.compress.LZ4Compressor'} AND crc_check_chance = 1.0 AND dclocal_read_repair_chance = 0.1 AND default_time_to_live = 0 AND gc_grace_seconds = 864000 AND max_index_interval = 2048 AND memtable_flush_period_in_ms = 0 AND min_index_interval = 128 AND read_repair_chance = 0.0 AND speculative_retry = '99PERCENTILE';
here is Sample Data:
cqlsh:OpsCenter> select * from backup_reports ;
week | event_time | backup_id | type | destination | deleted_at | full_status | keyspaces | status
