If the host that issued the correlation event is different from the host on which the user has logged in with JP1/IM - View, the correlation source events are acquired from the host that issued the correlation event.

Changing the event status

To change the event status to Delete, the user must open the Related Events (Correlation) window from the Severe Events page, and check the information displayed after the Display window: label to confirm that either of the following is displayed:

Severe Events
Severe Events - Related Events (Summary)

When the correlation source events are deleted, their background color changes to gray.

If the display items in the Preferences window are changed, the items displayed in the Related Events list are also changed.
A change in the status of the correlation event displayed in the Display Items area is not applied to any correlation source event displayed in the Related Events list. Likewise, a change in the status of a correlation source event displayed in the Related Events list is not applied to the correlation event displayed in the Display Items area. This is because a correlation event and its correlation source events indicate different phenomena.
