Create a dynamic device group

Dynamic device groups are defined by one or more rules. The servers in a dynamic group are added or removed automatically based on the rules that you define. This section describes how to create a dynamic device group. The following section describes how to create rules that determine the members of the group.

To create a public dynamic device group, you must have Manage Public Device Group permissions. To obtain these permissions, contact your SA Administrator.

To create a dynamic device group, perform the following steps:

From the Navigation pane, select Devices > Device Groups. The list of existing device groups appears in the Content pane. All the public device groups are under Public. All your private device groups are under your user name.
Navigate to the group where you want to create your new group.
- To create a public dynamic device group, select Public or navigate to a group under Public.
- To create a private dynamic device group, select your user name or navigate to a group under your user name.
From the Actions menu, select Device Group > New Dynamic Group.
This creates an empty device group named New Device Group (n), where n is a number based on the number of new device groups already in existence.
You can rename the device group by selecting it and either right clicking on it and selecting Rename or selecting the Actions > Rename menu item. Enter the name of the device group in the Content pane.
After you create a dynamic device group, you need to define the rules for the group. For more information, see About rules for a dynamic device group.
