Thanks for the response.

You see, there is nothing common among the collection of nodes in the
"non-critical" collection set. To create the collection, I simply went
through my IP network map and selected the nodes by hand added them.

I don't know how to use the ruleset to set a query against names in a
collection and take (or not take) an action if the node name in the event
matches;.

Does this make sense?
