Configuration Manager question: How do you change the Limited Collection designation of a Device Collection?

If i'm understanding the request correctly, then right click the device collection and the 'Limiting Collection' appears on the 'General Tab' where you can browse out and select a different collection

    I followed your instruction and when I Browse the desired Limited Collection and add it, I get the warning: The selected collections 'Servers' will create a circular dependency. Then it does not allow me to Apply the change. Suggestions?

      Let's say you have collection A and you want to limit it to collection B. But collection B has some limit on it that ultimately resolves back to collection A, then you'll get a circular dependency. Take a look at "Servers" and see how it's currently limited and follow the chain and hopefully you will find where you are getting a circular dependency.
