Impacts of newly discovered groups on existing groups

An existing related events group can be replaced by newly discovered related event group, or the newly discovered group can be ignored.

The following bullet points describe the Event Analytics functions for management of newly discovered groups and existing groups.
  • If a newly discovered group is a subset or same as an existing group within Watched, Active, Expired, or Archived, then Event Analytics ignores the newly discovered group.
  • If a newly discovered group is a superset of an existing group within New, then Event Analytics deletes the existing group and displays the newly discovered group in New. Otherwise, no changes occur with the existing group.
  • If a newly discovered group is a superset of an existing group within Watched, Active, or Expired, then Event Analytics moves the existing group to Archived, and displays the newly discovered group in Watched, Active, or Expired.
  • If a newly discovered group is a superset of an existing group within Archived, then Event Analytics adds the newly discovered group in to New and leaves the Archived group where it is.
