The information on this page refers to License Statistics v4.3 or newer, which added LDAP information and saved user preferences to the User Group page. If you are using v4.0 or previous, see documentation for previous versions. 

To create and manage License Statistics user, host, and license server groups, use the User Groups, Host Groups, and License Server Groups tabs on the Administration page. Working with groups is the same for all types of groups.

To create a new group and add/remove group members:

  1. Open the User Groups, Host Groups, or License Server Groups tab.
  2. At the bottom of the Groups table, click Add New.
  3. In the General tab of the Create Group dialog that appears, enter the group name and, if desired, a description. 
  4. Click Next to continue to the Users/Hosts/License Servers tab, where you select group members. This tab contains two tables: the table on the left lists all members that are not included in the group (which will be all members, initially) and the table on the right lists all members included in the group. You move members from one list to the other to specify which members to include in the group. 
  5. In the "not in group" table on the left, check the box next to the user/host/license server names you want to add to the group. You can select as many users/hosts/license servers as needed. (To select all users/hosts/license servers, click in the checkbox in the header row, above the individual user/host/license server entries.) For license server groups, the selected members must have the same vendor and gathering type (Realtime or Imported).
  6. Click Add to group to add the members to the group. The members are moved to the "in group" table on the right.
  7. To remove members from the group, select members from the "in group" table on the right in the same way as described above, and click Remove from group. The removed group members are listed again in the "not in group" table on the left. 

Note that the user/host/license server will still be available to add to other groups. Also, if a user hides individual license servers that are included in a group, the group will still be visible.

To edit a group:

  1. Select the desired group from the User/Host/License Server Group drop-down list.
  2. Click Edit.
  3. Make the desired changes to the group name and/or description, and click Submit to accept the changes.

To delete a group:

  1. Select the desired group from the User/Host/License Server Group drop-down list.
  2. Click Remove.

Note that for User Groups, LDAP information is given but is not editable. Also note that your selections are saved as preferences for the next time you log into License Statistics using the same login.
