To Assign a Host to Groups

You assign a managed host to user-defined groups. This does the same as adding hosts to groups, but from the perspective of each host and the groups it should belong to, rather than adding hosts to a single group.

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

2. In the Hosts list, expand a group and select a single managed host.

3. Do one of the following:

   • From the tool bar, click the Edit Host button.

   • Right-click the managed host and choose Edit.

   • From the Hosts menu, choose Edit.

   The Host Properties window opens.

4. In the Groups list, select a group and click the Add button.

   The host is added to the selected group. You can assign a managed host to multiple user-defined groups of any hierarchy.

5. Click OK.

   The Host Properties window closes.
