Using Groups
A group is a collection of devices organized for managing activities within ZENworks Patch
Management Server and contains a listing of all groups registered to it. Within the ZENworks
Patch Management Server, groups are organized into nested groups. These related groups,
called parent and child groups, allow you to maintain your ZENworks Patch Management
Server with minimum maintenance.
The Groups browser lists the names of each custom parent group, the child groups, system
groups, and custom groups. From this page you can access group information by expanding
the group in the directory tree, or proceed to the
Group Information page by clicking a
group name.
