Viewing Groups

The groups currently existing on the Node can be viewed on the Groups tab of the Security screen displayed by following the Security link on the Infrastructure Manager menu. There are two subtabs on this screen allowing you to list the groups from two Parallels databases (these databases are automatically created during the Virtuozzo Containers installation):

• The Parallels Internal subtab: this database contains Parallels-specific groups created during the Virtuozzo Containers installation and all groups that you have manually created in Parallels Infrastructure Manager.
• The System subtab: this database is fully identical to the system database created by any operating system on any computer. It contains the information on the groups registered in the Host OS and defines the rights these groups have in respect of the system administration.

The information on groups is presented in the table having the following columns:

To facilitate your working with groups, you can:

• Filter them by their names and description. To this effect, click the Show Search link over the table, enter the group name and/or description in the fields provided and click Search . The groups matching the specified criteria will be displayed in the Groups table on the Security screen. To have the full list of groups back, click Reset Results .
• Change the groups order by clicking the corresponding column name in the Groups table.
• Modify the number of groups simultaneously displayed in the Groups table on the Security screen by clicking the 10 , 20 , 40 , or 80 link at the top of the table.

The Group tab also allows you to:

• Remove an existing group by selecting the check box near the corresponding group and clicking the Delete button. When deleting groups, please keep in mind that you cannot remove built-in groups (i.e. any of the groups displayed on the System subtab).
• Create a new group by following the New Group link at the top of the Groups table.
