Creating a Group
Groups let you specify the share access privileges for a set of users. After you create a group, you
can define the group’s access privileges on a per-share basis. You can add or remove users to and
from the group at any time. Note that users are assigned a primary group within their user profile.
When users create a file, the group ownership is automatically set to their primary group. The storage
usage is charged to their primary group for the purposes of volume quota accounting. Group
membership, other than the primary group, is defined in either the
Add Group
or
Edit Group
page
and is used only to control access to shares and files.
To create a group:
1. From the
Manager Menu
, click
Access
Groups.
The
Configured Groups
page appears.
2. Click
Add
.
NOTE:
You cannot grant security privileges to a group for
a CIFS share through ACL.
