Viewing events by group
On the All Groups> Grid View screen you can re-calibrate events in the Event Status chart and display results based on groups set up by the Infrastructure Management administrator. Groups contain selected set of devices or applications, determined by your operating needs. For example, special monitoring of devices and applications might be setup by building, department, or individual. Infrastructure Management administrator selects the groups available to a user in the corresponding User Profile.
The All Groups table displays only top level groups that is, list of groups which are not part of any other group. The counts displayed in the Grid view include intelligent events and external events that are associated with a device (device-associated events). Hierarchical view is the default view only if there are groups in the system that can be displayed in hierarchy. The number of records for a particular page displayed at the bottom right corner in this view considers only the parent groups and does not consider the child groups under it. You can switch between hierarchical/flat view. If no virtual solution is configured then flat view is the default view
The display on this screen differs, depending on the configuration of display-whether with counts or with severity icons (see Customizing-the-display-of-the-event-list). The following table summarizes the columns of information available for events on the All Groups> Grid View screen.
