Creating groups manually

Groups are logical containers that are mechanisms that grant permissions to multiple users; members automatically share a group's permissions. Only authorization realms of the internal storage type can have manually created groups. Others types, such as LDAP, import groups cannot have manually created groups.

Note:

Adding groups to LDAP and SSO realms is deprecated.

  1. On the server, click Settings > Authorization (Groups) > Groups > Create Group. The Create Group dialog box opens.
  2. Provide a name for the group.
  3. Select an authorization realm.
    Groups are valid only for the selected realm.
  4. Click Save.
