Requirements
Other than being an admin user, group creation has no other prerequisites. No passive or detail discovery must
be performed prior to group creation, and defining the group does not require that specific CIs have already
been discovered.
Group Refresh
If you have not yet started discovery, then no CIs are populated in the MDR and any predefined groups do not
contain any services or hosts. After the MDR is populated, however, services or hosts are added to the group.
When you create a group, you can decide whether to automatically refresh the group. The default setting is
that the group will refresh automatically.

User-Defined Groups
Navigate to Manage > Groups and click Add Group to view the Group Definition screen and create a group.
An ADM group is shown in Figure 4 ‐ 1 . To create a group, select a primary object and then define one or more
rules that apply to that primary object. A primary object is a host, service, J2EE application, J2EE module, or
database instance. Based on the primary object you select, the fields for defining the rules change. Table 4 ‐ 1
lists these options.
