Remove Hardware Sensors in Mass

Anyone know how to remove all hardware sensors? It's very time consuming to click each one, list resources, uncheck the box and submit. I found the sensor listing in the database, but was afraid to just delete them as I didn't know what other tables they are tied to.

disable them using settings -> manage sensors

I should have mentioned, I have them disabled. But I would like to just remove them all together. Every so often I find that some of the sensors got re-enabled by "magic."

I got the same concern.

I provide support for the SolarWinds monitoring app but the SysAdmins have node management powers on their own machines.

They disabled hardware sensors for stuff they don't want.

But all those disabled hardware sensors eat up a lot in the Hardware Health Overview pie chart in our dashboard as they appear under the undefined portion of the pie chart.

We want to delete all disabled hardware sensors so that the pie chart will only contain any status other than undefined.
