additional information about setting the EMM deletion method.
If no, go to step 13.
Recommendation: Cisco requires that you configure your system to delete
EMMs based upon age (-a option).
Important! In the event that you have DHCTs that were staged improperly, the
DNCS Utilities includes the delete-sm utility. You can use this script to reset the
configuration of those DHCTs so they can later be refreshed by the billing system
with their staging EMMs. Refer to Chapter 3, Reset DHCT Configuration With
the delete-sm Utility (on page 21) for additional information and instructions on
running the delete-sm utility.
Note: When you choose to delete EMMs based upon the age of the EMMs, the
first time this cron job runs, your system may take a very long time to delete
excess EMMs. This is normal and should be expected.
