Managing roles for groups

Administrators can search for groups and manage their roles in the Group Roles page.

About this task

To search for user groups and manage their roles:

Procedure

  1. In the navigation pane, click Console Settings icon > Group Roles.
    The Group Roles page is displayed.
  2. In the search fields provided, you can enter search criteria by group ID and description.
    If you do not have exact details for a particular item, both search fields support using an asterisk (*) as a wildcard character. For example, to return all group records with a group ID that starts with tes, enter tes* in the Group ID field.
    Tip: You can leave the search fields blank to return all records.
  3. From the Number of results to display list, select the number of records that you want returned and click Search.
    Restriction: Returned records are displayed in one page only. If more records are available than the setting you chose from the list, only a partial list is returned. To display all records you need to search again after selecting a larger number from the Number of results to display list.
    A list of records that match your search criteria are listed in the grid.
  4. Select a group from the Group Name column.
    A list of available roles for the selected group is displayed on a new page. Those roles that are currently associated with the selected group are checked.
  5. Modify the roles associated with the group as required, that is, check the roles that you want associated with the group and clear those that you do not.
  6. Click Save to commit your changes, or Reset to reset the form to its initial state.
    Once you click Save, the Group Roles page is displayed. The entry for the group in the Roles column is updated to reflect your changes.

What to do next

You can select another group from the search results and update its role settings, enter new search criteria to manage other group records, or close the Group Roles page.
