How to personalize a view in Operations Manager

  • Article

Important

This version of Operations Manager has reached the end of support. We recommend you to upgrade to Operations Manager 2022.

In System Center Operations Manager, views are contained in management packs. If a view is contained in a sealed management pack, you can open the properties of the view, but you can't save any changes to it. However, you can change the display options of the view and then save it as a personalized view.

Note

Personalized views are only visible to the user who personalized the view.

To personalize a view

  1. In the Operations console, select Monitoring.

  2. In the Monitoring workspace, right-click the view that you want to personalize and then select Personalize view. The Personalize view dialog displays with the default settings of the view.

  3. In Columns to display, click to place a check next to the property that you want to display in your view. You can also click to remove any checkmarks set by the original view. In the Sort columns by box, select the dropdown arrow to choose a property by which you want to sort the monitored objects in your view, and select OK.

    Note

    In a state view, the option to sort by groups isn't available. This option is available in other view types, such as the alert view and event view.

To restore view defaults

  1. In the Operations console, select Monitoring.

  2. In the Monitoring workspace, right-click the personalized view.

  3. Select Reset to Default, and select OK.
