To Delete a Group

In this procedure you delete user-defined groups. The hosts are not deleted, but nested groups are. Though you cannot delete default distribution groups, if you uninstall the Sun Update Connection – Enterprise Agent from the last managed host of a distribution group, that group is deleted automatically.

You cannot delete groups in the following circumstances:

• The group is a default group: All Hosts or a distribution group.

• The group is in a currently active job.

• The group is selected for a scheduled job.

1. Login as a user with full permissions or as the admin user.

2. In the Hosts list, select the group that you want to delete.

3. Do one of the following:

   • From the tool bar, click the Delete Group button.

   • Right-click the selected group and choose Delete.

   • From the Hosts menu, choose Delete.

4. In the dialog box that opens, click Delete again.

   The group and its child groups are deleted.
