Static Group - Dell OpenManage Network Manager Client Manual

Dell OpenManage Network Manager does not supports static groups that include members
retrieved by (dynamic) filters. You can configure membership with dynamic resource groups that
include group memberships as filter criteria. For example you can create a filter for members of
ResourceGroupABC or members of ResourceGroupXYZ.
Expanded Managed Resource Groups
The expanded Managed Resource Groups screen lets you see the summary screen's groups with a
Reference Tree snap panel that displays a selected group's connection to its devices and any
assigned monitors.

Static Group

Selecting Static Group as the
type to create displays a
selector screen where you can
Name and select a Category for
the group, then search for
available resources with a filter.
Click Apply Filter after you
have configured it, and a list of
devices fitting its criteria
appears. Select device(s) and
click Add Selected, or simply
click Add All to add the entire
list to your static group. Notice
that you can continue to re-use
this filter to list devices, and
continue to select them.
When you select a device, it no
longer appears listed. When
you click Done the subsequent screen displays all devices you have selected. You can click Add on
this screen to return to the previous screen (or Remove All to delete the listed devices from the
group). At the bottom of this screen, you can also elect to group devices by None, Vendor or
Common Type (Switch, Router, and so on). These last two create "trees" with nodes for each vendor
or type. You can also click the magnifying glass to search through listed devices. Clicking Remove
All removes all devices in the group.
Click Save to preserve the group you have configured.
