Deleting a held broadcast

Note: By default, you can use this facility only if you have a security authorization level of 9.

To delete a held broadcast message

Complete the following steps to delete a message held in the system - that is, a 'hold until' time was set for the message when its details were specified (see Broadcasting a message):

  1. From System view for a node, select the Overview tab.
  2. If required, use the vertical scroll bar to reposition the 'frame' so that the Broadcasts/Flash section is visible.
  3. If the Broadcasts/Flash section is collapsed then to expand it, click on its heading.
  4. Held broadcast messages are listed under the heading Current Broadcasts. Right-click the required message.
  5. From the resulting context menu, select Delete.
  6. A Response pop-up box will appear containing a message to the effect that the operation is complete. To close this pop-up box, left-click the OK button.
