Systems
A system collection logically groups systems into a group based on information in the HP SIM
After a collection is defined, you can display the results in the workspace or associate it with a management
In addition to using the collections provided by HP SIM, you can create, edit, or delete your own collections.
Collections must follow specific naming conventions. See
“Collection naming conventions”
for more information
on naming collections.
Collections can be used to organize large numbers of systems into smaller, more meaningful groups. For
example, your organization might have five system administrators who are responsible for 100 different
systems in six different buildings. You can create a collection for each administrator that includes only his
or her systems or you can create a collection for each building that includes only the systems located in a
particular building.
Events
An event collection logically groups other event collections into a collection based on information in the HP
SIM database. After a collection is defined, you can display the results in the workspace or associate it with
a management task.
