Steps for moving a group

To move a group

  1. In the console tree, locate and select the folder that contains the group.
  2. In the details pane, right-click the group and click Move to display the Move dialog box.
  3. In the Move dialog box, select the folder to which you want to move the group, and then click OK.

NOTE:

  • With Active Roles, groups can only be moved within the same domain. This means that the group and the folder to which you want to move the group must belong to the same domain.
  • You can move multiple groups at a time: Select the groups, right-click the selection, and click Move to display the Move dialog box. To select multiple groups, press and hold down CTRL, and then click each group.
  • You can move objects, such as groups, by using the drag-and-drop feature. To move a selection of objects, drag the selection from the details pane to the destination container in the console tree.
  • You can use the Find function of Active Roles in order to locate the group you want to move. Once you have found the group, you can move it as follows: Right-click the group in the list of search results and click Move to display the Move dialog box.

Exporting and importing groups

With the Active Roles console, you can export groups to an XML file and then import them from that file to populate a container in a different domain. The export and import operations provide a way to relocate groups between domains.

To export groups, select them, right-click the selection, and select All Tasks | Export. In the Export Objects dialog box, specify the file where you want to save the data, and click Save.

To import groups, right-click the container where you want to place the groups, and then click Import. In the Import Directory Objects dialog box, select the file to which the groups were exported, and click Open.

Deleting groups

To delete groups, select them, right-click the selection, and click Delete. Then, click Yes to confirm the deletion. If you select multiple groups, clicking Delete displays the Delete Objects dialog box. To delete all the selected groups, select the Apply to all items check box, and then click Yes.

 NOTE: Deleting a group is an irreversible operation. A new group with the same name as a deleted group does not automatically assume the permissions and memberships of the deleted group. When recreating a deleted group, you need to manually add all permissions and memberships.

Steps for deleting a group

To delete a group

  1. In the console tree, locate and select the folder that contains the group.
  2. In the details pane, right-click the group, and then click Delete.

NOTE:

  • Deleting a group is a permanent operation. Once a group has been deleted, all permissions and memberships associated with that group are permanently deleted. A new group with the same name as a previously deleted group does not automatically assume the permissions and memberships of the previously deleted group. To duplicate a deleted group, all permissions and memberships must be manually re-created.
  • The confirmation message box displayed by the Delete command prompts you that you can deprovision rather than delete groups. The deprovision operation refers to a set of actions performed by Active Roles in order to prevent the use of there group. Active Roles comes with a default policy to automate some commonly-used deprovisioning tasks, and allows the deprovision policies to be adjusted as needed.
  • You can deprovision a group as follows: Right-click the group in the details pane, and click Deprovision.
  • You can use the Find function of Active Roles in order to locate the group you want to delete or deprovision. Once you have found the group, you can proceed as follows: Right-click the group in the list of search results, and click Delete or Deprovision.
  • When deleting a group, you may encounter an error message stating that access is denied. A possible cause of this error is that the group is protected from deletion. To delete a protected group, you should first go to the Object tab in the Properties dialog box for that group, and clear the Protect object from accidental deletion check box.
