HP Systems Insight Manager User Manual

NOTE:
Additional changes to the system group or collection do not affect the other, unless updated by
one of the following options or by using the GUI as previously described. Therefore, changes to the collection
do not affect authorizations, and changes to the system group do not affect the collection view unless
specifically updated.
The contents of the system group can be updated with the current contents of the collection by using the -u
parameter for mxngroup:
mxngroup –m –g <groupname> -u
CAUTION:
This command does not display the systems in the collection. To display the updated contents
of the system group, use mxngroup –lm –g <groupname>.
CAUTION:
Setting up a periodic task to dynamically update a system group is not recommended. A
collection based on system attribute scan be compromised, adversely affecting authorizations in HP Systems
Insight Manager (HP SIM), if those attributes are based on a non-secure protocol such as SNMP or are
maintained by a user with no configuration rights. Additionally, the collection itself can be modified by a
user with no configuration rights, again adversely affecting authorizations.
When deleting authorizations, a system group that is no longer used in any authorizations is deleted.
