Creating a Group Profile

Create a group profile so that you can associate an instance with a group when registering the instance with Autonomous Linux.

Before you create a group profile, you must have already created a group.

  • Add Basic Information

    Provide the basic information for the profile.

    • Name: Enter a name for the profile. You can add or change the name later. The name doesn't need to be unique, because an Oracle Cloud Identifier (OCID) uniquely identifies the profile. Avoid entering confidential information.
    • Description: (Optional) Enter a description for the profile. Avoid entering confidential information.
    • Show advanced options: Add tags to this resource.

      If you have permissions to create a resource, then you also have permissions to apply free-form tags to that resource. To apply a defined tag, you must have permissions to use the tag namespace. For more information about tagging, see Resource Tags. If you're not sure whether to apply tags, ask an administrator or skip this option. You can apply tags later.

    Review and Create

    Review the details of the profile. Make any changes as needed, and then select Create.

    View the new profile in the Profiles list page.

  • Use the oci os-management-hub profile create-group-profile command and required parameters to create a profile for a group.

    oci os-management-hub profile create-group-profile --compartment-id ocid --display-name profile-name --group-id ocid [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

  • Run the CreateProfile operation to create a profile for a group.
