NOTE:

  • The behavior of the Rename Group dialog box may vary depending on the configuration of Active Roles policies. To determine whether a given item in the dialog box is under the control of a certain policy, observe the text label next to the item: the underlined text label indicates that some policy restrictions are in effect. Click underlined text labels to examine the policies that govern the behavior of the dialog box.
  • You can use the Find function of Active Roles in order to locate the group you want to rename. Once you have found the group, you can open the Rename Group dialog box for that group as follows: Right-click the group in the list of search results, click Rename, type a new name, and then press ENTER.

Assigning a manager over a group

To assign a manager over a group, right-click the group, click Properties, and go to the Managed By tab in the Properties dialog box, shown in the following figure. On the Managed By tab, click Change and select the user or contact to designate as the manager.

Figure 15: Assigning a manager over a group

If you select Manager can update membership list, the manager can use Active Roles to add and remove members from the group.

It is possible to assign multiple group owners, to load balance the management of the group. To assign additional owners to the group, click the button next to the Secondary owners box. Group owners can be given the same rights over the group as the manager. For example, selecting the check box beneath the Secondary owners box gives the secondary owners the authority to add or remove members from the group.

It is possible to assign management of the group to another group: you can select a group in the Select Objects dialog box that you use to specify the manager or a secondary owner. This enables every member of the group to act as the manager or secondary owner.
