Customizing event collections
The System and Event Collections panel contains an Events collection. This collection contains collections
of different types of events .
Collections can be private or shared. Shared collections are visible to all users , and private collections are
personal collections you create that only you can view. HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) ships with
several predefined shared collections. For example, Events by Severity is a default shared collection that
