Customizing the Default Selections for Active Lists

If you are viewing events on an active channel, you have the ability to add selected events to existing active lists. By default, the Console's viewer panel enables you to browse to the resource locator so you can locate then select the desired list. These lists might be assigned to different list groups and might also be nested in a hierarchy.

If adding events from the event grid to existing lists is a frequent task for you, you can configure the grid's right-click option to display your top three frequently-used lists so that these lists are immediately available for selection.

Where: Edit > Preferences > Grid View Options

  1. On the Grid View ActiveList Options area, click Configure. The ActiveLists resource selector is displayed.

  2. Expand a group to locate your first preferred active list.

    1.  Select an active list and click Add.

    2.  Repeat to add up to a total of three lists.

    3.  Change a list's position by clicking the up or down arrow.

    4.  Remove lists from the selection as required.

Following is an example configuration for a selection of preferred active lists:

Note: This feature does not apply to the Remove From option from the grid view. If you are using the Remove From option, the Console displays an Active List selector dialog. You then navigate through the resource tree for active lists to select the list.
