What you described is how the function works. New workspaces which run
rulesets get primed with the last few events (I thought that number was a
hundred but I could be wrong) and those which meet the Forward criteria are
displayed, and that's all. This is not user-configurable.
What you might do is configure the nvevents defaults to always open more
than one window every time, each running a different ruleset. Open all
the workspaces you want open concurrently once. Then pull down Options
from the main window and click "Save Environment on Exit". Then close
all the event windows. This will create an NvEnvironments/Workspaces
file in your home directory. Then you can either edit
/usr/OV/app-defaults/Nvevents (so this is effective for all users who
create such a file) or copy the Nvevents file to your home directory and
edit their. Change the entry which says nvevents.LoadEnvOnInit from False
to True and restart nvevents. It should open all your workspaces again
simultaneously so that from now on they will always show the same events
"filtered" by different rulesets.

Subject: Event stream cache and rulesets ??
How can I pass more event stream information than whats in its cache (25
events so I have read) into a newly created event filter?
The event stream that is processed by the newly created filter is only
the events that are in its cache and new ones.
The new event display only shows me new node down events not all nodes
that are currently down.
Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance.
