Error description

• In the Monitor Data Security panel in the administrative
  console, when
  you attempt to search for groups to add to a monitor model (via
  <monitor_model_name> > Groups > Search), the search may fail to
  return
  any groups.  This issue has been observed in certain customer
  environments; in these environments, the group search initiated
  via
  Security > Users and Groups > Manage Groups (standard WebSphere
  Application Server security) works correctly.

  ****************************************************************
  The underlying filter used for group search in the Monitor
  Data Security needs to be modelled after what is used by
  WebSphere Application Server (administrative console panels
  that provide group search capability).
  This issue will be resolved in future maintenance releases of
  WebSphere Business Monitor Version 7.0, IBM Business
  Monitor Version 7.5, and IBM Business Monitor Version 8.0.
