4.4.3.1. Creating Groups
To add a new system group, click the create new group button on the top-left corner. Type a name
and description and click the Create Group button. Make sure you use a name that clearly sets this
group apart from others. The new group will appear in the System Groups list.
4.4.3.2. Adding and Removing Systems in Groups
In the System Groups list, click the name of the group to receive the systems. This will take you
to the System Group Details page. Once there, click the Target Systems tab and select the systems
to be added to this group. Although all entitled systems should be listed, only systems entitled to
Management can be selected for addition. After selecting all of the systems to be added, click the
Add Systems button on the bottom right-hand corner of the page. The new systems will then be
shown on the group's Systems tab.
To remove systems from groups, use the Groups tab of the System Details page. Refer to Section
4.4.2.6 System Details for instructions.
4.4.3.3. System Group Details
At the top of each System Group Details page are two links: work with group and delete group.
Clicking delete group does just that and should be used with caution. Clicking Work with Group
functions similarly to the Use Group button from the System Groups list in that it loads the group's
systems and launches the System Set Manager immediately. Refer to Section 4.4.4 System Set Man-
ager for more information.

and click the Modify Details button.

•
takes you to corresponding tabs within the System Details page for the associated system. To
remove systems from the group, select the appropriate checkboxes and click the Remove from
group button on the bottom of the page. Clicking it does not delete systems from RHN entirely.
This is done through the System Set Manager or System Details pages. Refer to Section 4.4.4
System Set Manager or Section 4.4.2.6 System Details, respectively.
Target Systems — List of all systems in your organization. This tab enables you to add systems to
•
the specified system group. Merely select the systems using the checkboxes to the left and click the
Add Systems button on the bottom right-hand corner of the page.
Errata — List of relevant Errata for systems in the system group. Clicking the Advisory takes
•
you to the Details tab of the Errata Details page. (Refer to Section 4.5.2.2 Errata Details for more
information.) Clicking the Affected Systems number lists all of the systems addressed by the Errata.
To apply the Errata Updates in this list, select the systems and click the Apply Errata button.
Admins — List of all organization users that potentially have permission to manage the system
