3.

In the Group Name box, enter the host group name.

It is convenient if you name each host group after the host platform. For example, when creating
a host group to register Windows NT hosts in, the host group name can be wnt.

A host group name can consist of up to 32 ASCII characters (letters, numerals, and symbols).
However, you cannot use the following symbols for host group names:

\ / : , ; * ? " < > |

You cannot use spaces for the first and last characters in host group names.

Host group names are case-sensitive. For example, host group names wnt and Wnt represent
different host groups.

4.

In the Host Mode list, select a host mode. When selecting a host mode, you must consider the
platform and other factors (see

Table 15

).

CAUTION:

Do not select Reserve from the list. Reserve indicates that the host mode is not currently
supported.
