Use this page to create one or more user groups. Groups are collections of users who share access
authority to protected resources.
You can define groups for users who access
the same applications or hardware, perform the same tasks, or have
similar requirements for accessing PowerHA® SystemMirror tasks
and information.
Fields
- Name
- Specify a unique name for the group that you are creating. Group
names must not begin with a hyphen (-), plus sign (+), at sign (@),
or tilde (~). Additionally, you cannot use any of the following characters
in the name: colon (:), single quotation mark (’), double quotation
mark ("), pound sign (#), comma (,), equal sign (=), forward slash
(/), backslash (\) or a space ( ).
- Group ID
- Specify a unique decimal integer string to associate with the
group account on the system. If you do not specify an ID, an ID is
assigned for you.

group. Only the root user can manage an administrative group. The
default value is Yes. If you select No, the root user and any user
that is a member of the security group can manage this group.

registry step of this wizard. This is the storage location for all
information and credentials for the group.
