HP SIM V5.1 User Guide (356920-009, January 2007)

Tabs
The event table view page contains the following tabs:
• System(s). This tab lists all of the systems in the collection.
• Events. This tab displays the events for all the systems included under the System(s) tab. From this
tab, additional filters can be applied to modify the event table display..
When switching between System(s) tab and Events tab, the Events tab remembers the selected events
and the selected event filter (if viewing a system collection). The System(s) tab remembers the selected
systems, view type (table, tree, or icon), and the selected system filter (if viewing an event collection). However,
the selections on each page are independent of each other.
