Pretty sure I know the answer but, I am curious if there is a way to remove cases that were created in the built in case management functionallity. It appears as part of some kind of testing that a case was triggered for every alarm that was fired. I am unsure how the case management feature fits into our overall plans but I would at least like to start with a clean slate if we decide to use it.
If they cannot be removed, is there a way to easily close 400+ cases without touching each individually?
Thanks in advance.

Bump. Why is this still unanswered?
From what I've seen there is no way to close more than 1 case at a time. Closing each case requires SIEM to refresh as well, taking even more time. If you have to close a lot of cases created by a junk alarm it will take hours/days of time to do so and renders the case management feature useless until the junk alarm is fixed or stopped and all the cases are flushed out 1 at a time. It takes about 10 seconds to close a case in the case management window (need to wait for SIEM to refresh after each one, and then load the case when you open it). 400 cases could take over 60+ hours to close out.
Is there really no way to close or delete these in bulk? If so, WHY?
Yes, this is by design.
Case management functionality was requested to be fully auditable, for regulatory requirements.
Yes it's a major pain when badly set alarms flood your case management view, please use them carefully.
They should at least have the ability to bulk change Case Status. That's a god awful design feature. Thankfully it wasn't me that created these. Someone is going to have fun spending the next 9 shifts closing each case one at a time... Basically this will cost us over 80 hours of labor. And SIEM was supposed to be this nicely automated tool. I guess you get what you pay for. In this case $500k+. Honestly, we should have our McAfee support rep sit here and close all of these one at a time.
FYI if you have Platinum support, contact your support rep and have them send someone out to come close each junk case - They'll have to do it. This is the best solution to flushing out cases in bulk.
Hi dear community,
i'm not sure why no one answered about till now...
but the solution is simple.
ssh to the ESM
root
NGCP password
note: it's recommended to check before in a test environment before writing to the Prod environment.
## To get into the database on the ESM.
nsql /usr/local/ess/data/connect_esm.sql
## after the "opentime" you could choose or < or > to determine if you want to close cases older than x or after x.
update casemgt set status=2, closetime='09/04/2019 00:00:00' where opentime < '09/01/2019 00:00:00'
Best Regards👍👍👍
