Creating a User-defined Group

Step 1 Select Resource Manager Essentials > Devices > Group Administration.
The Group Administration and Configuration dialog box appears. This dialog box contains two panes.
• Group Selector—Lists all the System-defined Group and User-defined Group.
• Group Info—Contains the device group description.
Step 2 Select a User Defined Groups under which you want to create a new group from the Group Selector pane.

the name 'MyGroup' for the sub- group of another group in User Defined Groups.
