Server Group Security

Server Manager contains a set of server group permissions that enable you to control the activities Management Console users can perform on the servers within a particular server group. This layer of security enables you to control the tasks that Management Console users can perform on a server as well as the configuration data that they can access. You can grant permissions that allow a set of users to perform certain types of tasks in one server group, but not another. For example, you can permit developers total access to a server group that manages servers for a test environment, but not give the same developers access to production servers managed in another server group.

Security for server groups, or server group permissions, is assigned to user groups. See Assign Server Manager Permissionsfor more information.
