Group Management

The PrimeAlert WebPortal provides the ability to add Groups to Domains, or to nest Groups inside one another. Groups can be used to organized managed nodes according to their physical location or functional role.

Adding a Group

Within the root of a Domain or within another Group, there will be a text link Add A Group at the top of the table. Selecting this link will launch the Group Adder, shown below.

• The Label field (mandatory) is the description which will appear next to this object.
• Description (optional) allows you to specify a long description of the group to be monitored.

Once the table fields have been specified, click the Apply button to add the group. After the group adding is complete, a results page will be presented, and the group will now appear in the view.

Deleting a Group

When within a domain or group view, groups which can be deleted will have a Delete Group... entry in their Context Popup Menu (shown below). To delete a group from the current view, select Delete Group... in the popup menu for the group to be deleted.

You will be prompted for confirmation that you wish to delete the group, after which you may choose OK or Cancel. If you choose OK, the group will be deleted from the view, and the screen will be redrawn to reflect the new contents of that domain or folder.
