Creating the Administration Group Hierarchy

The following four primary tasks summarize the administration group creation process. These tasks are conveniently arranged in sequence via tabbed pages.

Note:

In order to create the administration group hierarchy, you must have both Full Any Target and Create Privilege Propagating Group target privileges.

Task 1: Access the Administration Group and Template Collections page.

Task 2: Define the hierarchy.

From the Hierarchy tab, you define the administration group hierarchy that matches the way you manage your targets. See Defining the Hierarchy.

Task 3: Define the Template Collections.

From the Template Collections tab, you define the monitoring and management settings you want applied to targets. See Defining Template Collections.

Task 4: Associate the Template Collections with the Administration Group.

From the Associations tab, you tie the monitoring and management settings to the appropriate administration group. See Associating Template Collections with Administration Groups.
