Adding Groups

When you create a group, you typically specify which users should be members of that group,
although you can create an empty group and add users later. A user must be created from the
Users page before being added to a group.

Each user can be a member of multiple groups. For example, the user Alice might be a member
of both the Marketing and Executives groups.

The freeStor 4020 supports up to 128 groups at any one time.

To add a group:

1. In the navigation bar, click “Users”.

2. In the left pane, click “Groups”.

3. Click “Add” to open the add groups page shown in Figure 3-10.

4. In the “Group name” text box, enter a unique name for the group. This name can be up to 15

characters long and can include letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores. It cannot
begin with a period, contain spaces or a double period, or contain the following characters: /
\ [ ] : ; | = , + * ? < > @ " ' # ~ ` % $

5. Specify which users should belong to this group, and then click “OK”: To select multiple,

contiguous users, hold down the Shift key and select the first user, then select the last user.
All users between the first and last selected user are selected. To select multiple, non-
contiguous users, hold down the Ctrl key as you select each user.

Add All Users: All users from the Available users list are added to the group.
