About client groups

NetVault lets you group the clients into one or more logical entities.

You can configure a client group to contain all clients or specific clients. The new clients automatically become members of the client groups that are configured to include all clients. You can create any number of client groups on the server and add a client to multiple client groups.

The NetVault Administrator can use client groups to control user access to clients. The administrator can grant access to specific clients by using a client group. Client groups are also useful when creating policy-based backups. Instead of individually selecting each client, you can select the client group to add multiple clients.

NetVault includes a pre-configured client group named default, which is originally configured to include All Clients. Therefore, when you add a client, it is automatically added to the default group, unless you have reconfigured this group to not include All Clients.

Creating a client group

You can group the NetVault Clients into one or more logical entities. A client group can contain all or specific clients. The new clients automatically become members for client groups that are configured to include all clients.

To create a client group:

In the Navigation pane, click Manage Clients, and then on the Manage Clients page, click Manage Client Groups.

On the Client Group Management page, click New Group. On the Client Group page, provide the following information

•

In Group Name, type a name for the client group.

•

In Group Description, provide a detailed description for the client group.

•

To add all clients to the group, select the All Clients check box. When you select this check box, the new clients are automatically added to the group.

To add a specific client, select the target client in the Available Clients table, and click the Add button (

) to the left of the item. When you click this button, the selected client is moved to the Chosen Clients table.

•

To remove a client from the group, select the target client in the Chosen Clients table, and click the Remove button (

) to the left of the item. When you click this button, the selected client is moved to the Available Clients table.

To add the group, click Create Group.

Viewing existing client groups

You can view information about the existing client groups from the Client Group Management page. The page displays the group name, number of clients, and the list of member clients.

To view the existing client groups:

In the Navigation pane, click Manage Clients, and then on the Manage Clients page, click Manage Client Groups.

On the Client Group Management page, you can view the existing client groups.

The table shows the following information about the client groups:

•

Group name: Displays the name of the client group.

•

All Clients: The check box is selected if the group is configured to include all clients.

•

Number of Clients: Displays the number of clients in the group.

•

Description: Displays description for the client group.

You can click the client group name to display the list of clients included in the group. (The list of clients is only displayed for groups that do not have the All Clients check box selected.)

To perform a client group-related task, click the corresponding button in the Operations pane. Alternatively, click a link in the Navigation pane to open a different page.
