HP Systems Insight Manager 7.2 Technical Reference Guide

Private collections can be placed into a shared collection, but shared collections cannot be placed
into a private collection.
If a collection is placed in both Shared and Private, any user that has administrative rights can
modify the collection stored in the Shared collection. When the collection is modified in one place,
changes are reflected in the other collection. If the user who created the collection has his or her
user rights reduced from administrative rights to operator rights, he or she can no longer modify
the collection that is located in the Shared collection, and can only edit the collection located in
the Private collection, which is not reflected in the collection located in the Shared collection.
Collections and members of collections can be set to hidden in the user interface. You might want
to do this to remove the clutter of unused collections from the System and Event Collections panel.
See Setting properties for system and cluster collections and Setting event properties for more
information.

The Customize link in the System and Event Collections panel enables you to customize the System

the shared Systems and Events collections. To display the Customize Collections section, click
Customize.
