How can I set USM Alarm Filter so that the filter remains in place after logging out/logging back in ?

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

Currently, if I set a filter in the USM Alarm View the filter works for the session but it is not persisted across sessions e.g. after logging out and logging back in.
Is there a way to make an filter persist across sessions ?

Environment

UIM/USM 9.0.2. 9.2.0

Resolution

In USM towards the top right click on the wrench icon then Preferences



then set the view to Alarm and filter property with the path to the filter e.g.



Save that and Return to Full Page. The filter should now be set and will be persisted across sessions.
