HP Systems Insight Manager - Manual (Page 64)

There are two instances of SystemC in the view of the hierarchy because CollectionC is the same
throughout the application. Any place that CollectionC is referenced, it will always contain the same
systems. However, SystemD appears only under CollectionB. CollectionB and Copy of CollectionB are
distinct and independent collections.
•
Move
Move enables you to easily move a collection exactly where you want it in the hierarchy.
NOTE: Collections can be moved from Private to Shared, but not from Shared to Private.
•
Delete
Most collections can be deleted. However, there are some restrictions.
•
Collections cannot be deleted if they are not empty.
•
Collections cannot be deleted if they are in use. That is, if the collection is the target for a scheduled
task, if it is used for the System Status panel, or if it is used in some other collection, then it cannot
be deleted.
•
The All Systems and All Events collections cannot be deleted.
•
After a collection is deleted, it cannot be recovered.
•
Set Properties
Collections have properties, and these properties define the way collections behave in the System and
Event Collections panel and elsewhere in Systems Insight Manager.
•
Visible property
It might be the case that there are system or event collections, that are either shipped with HP SIM
or are user-defined, that you do not use, but at the same time, do not want to delete. If you do not
use these collections, but you do not want to delete them, you can remove them from the user
interface by using the Visible setting in the collection properties. When you select No, do not show
collection and its members in the user interface for a collection, that collection no longer appears
in the System and Event Collections panel, in the Task Wizard, or any place in the user interface
(except the customization panel itself) where collections are shown.
Making collections invisible can make the System and Event Collections panel less cluttered, but
note that once you make collections invisible, they are excluded everywhere in HP SIM including
being removed from tasks. For example, if a task is scheduled to run with a certain collection, and
that collection is made not visible, then the task will not run on that collection. You can change
the visibility setting at any time.
•
Status Displayed property
You can set the Status Displayed property to enable you to easily view the aggregate status of a
particular collection in the System and Event Collections panel. You can set this property only
