Setting properties for a system or cluster collection

You can use the System and Event Collections panel to set collection properties such as hiding or showing

collections, system status, and cluster status, and selecting the default view for a collection.

To set properties for system or cluster collections:

1. Click Customize in the System and Event Collections panel. The Customize Collections page

appears.

2. In the Show collections of dropdown list, select Systems. All available system or cluster collections

are displayed. Click to expand all system and cluster collections in the table, or click to

collapse all system and cluster collections in the table.

3. Select a collection, and then click Set Properties. The Set Properties section appears.

4. Under Visible, select Yes, show collection and its members in the user interface or select No,

do not show collection and its members in the user interface . If you have collections that are

unused, you might want to select No, do not show collection and its members in the user interface

so that the collections do not clutter the System and Event Collections panel.

5. If you want to see the system health status, under Status Displayed, select Yes, show status in System

and Event Collections panel, or to keep the panel uncluttered, select No, do not show the status

in System and Event Collections panel.

Note: This option is available only for collections based on attributes and for combination collections.

Note: For a collection, the most critical status of its members is displayed. If you open the collection,

the status for each individual member is shown.

Note: To conserve system resources, try to limit the display of status to only those collections that you

view the most.

6. In the Default View field, select the default view from the dropdown list.
