Introduction
As at Open-AudIT 2.0 we have changed the way Groups are used within Open-AudIT. Groups used to be the way to assign a user rights to devices. A user had a level of access to a group (or groups). This is no longer the case.
As at Open-AudIT 2.0, users are assigned a role (or roles) and access is based upon the organisations a user has access to. Groups are used mainly for reporting convienence convenience and Baselines within Open-AudIT Enterprise.
...
A group can be created using the web interface if a user has a role that contains the group::create permission. Go to menu: Manage -> Resources -> Groups -> Create Groups. There is also a create button on the collection page. A user must include the filter clause in the where filter, ie - WHERE @filter. This is required so Open-AudIT can return only those devices a user has access rights to. Examples are on the Help -> Default Group List Defaults -> Default Groups page (see below).
