Description

Group Name

The Directory Server group name. Microsoft Active Directory servers have a reverse

mapping from the user to the groups the user belongs to. To determine if the user is a
member of the group, other servers might need to combine the Group Name with a

Search Context to look up the group. To open the Edit LDAP Group window, click the

Group Name.
Nested group memberships (groups that are members of groups) are searched to a

depth of up to four levels when determining group membership.

Roles

Zero or more roles (Domain, Network, Storage, Server) assigned to the group. A user
can be a member of multiple groups, in which case the roles are cumulative. If the user

is only a member of a group (or groups) with no roles, the user can log in and view the

Virtual Connect configuration but cannot make any changes. If a user is not a member

of any group, the user cannot log in.

Role Operations

Permitted operations for the assigned roles. Role Operations can be edited from the

"Role Management (Role Operations) screen (on page

84

)."
