Resolution

To get a list of retired items perform the following steps

1. Create a file /tmp/retired.xml

2. Add the following syntax

<FilterSelect xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="filter.xsd">

<Filter>
<And><Lifecycle.State type="EQUAL">RETIRED</Lifecycle.State><Not><Item.Name type="CONTAINS">DataAggregator:</Item.Name></Not><Not><Item.Name type="CONTAINS">DataCollector</Item.Name></Not></And>
</Filter>

<Select use="exclude" isa="exclude" relatesto="exclude">
<Item use="exclude">
<Name use="include"/>
</Item>
<Device use="exclude">
<PrimaryIPAddress use="include"/>
</Device>
<Lifecycle use="exclude">

</Lifecycle>
</Select>
</FilterSelect>

   3. Run the following command:
