Tasks Available on This Screen

On this screen, users can do one the following tasks:

From a Group's Perspective

The only resources available for addition to the group are those of the same resource type specified for this group.

To add resources to a group:

  1. Check the desired resources in "Resources" and click between the two lists to move the selected resources to "Add Resources." (The arrow is enabled only when some resources are selected.)
    Users can filter the list of all available resources either by:
    • Typing in (part of) the resource's name in Filter By Name and clicking directly to the right, or
    • Selecting a resource or inventory level in Filter By Type. (This filter is available only for mixed groups, as compatible groups contain only one resource type.)
  2. Click .

To remove resources from a group:

  1. Check the desired resources in "Add Resources" and click between the two lists to move the selected resources to "Resources." (The arrow is enabled only when some resources are selected.)
  2. Click .

From a Resource's Perspective

The only groups available for selection are compatible groups of the exact type of the resource in question and mixed groups. (In the case of an application, only mixed groups of type "Application" are available.) Groups that the resource is already a member of are not listed for selection.

To add the resource to groups:

  1. Check the desired groups in "Groups containing this resource" and click the right arrow button between the two lists to move the selected resources to "Add to Groups." (The arrow is enabled only when some resources are selected.)
  2. Click OK.
