Creating a criteria-based dynamic group

This topic describes how to create a criteria-based dynamic group.

Complete the following steps to create a dynamic group:

  1. In the IBM Director Console window, select Console > New > Group > Dynamic Group….
  2. In the Dynamic Group Editor window, in the Available Criteria pane, expand the tree that has the criterion you want to use to define the group. Click a criterion and click Add.

    The default operator is the equal sign (=). You can change the operator for any criterion by right-clicking the criterion and selecting another operator.

    Repeat this step to add more criteria. When you add criteria, the Choose Add Operation window opens. Click All True or Any True; then, click OK.

  3. Click File > Save As to save the new dynamic group.
  4. In the Save As window, type a descriptive name for the group. This name will be listed in the Groups pane.
    註: The group name is case-sensitive.
  5. Click OK. The group is displayed under All Groups in the Groups pane.
  6. Click File > Close Group Editor to close the Dynamic Group Editor window.
註: You cannot use a wild card (*.*) to create a dynamic group. To create a dynamic group using criteria that are not present in the IBM Director database, you must use DIRCLI.
