Types of Groups

You can create several types of groups, or a combination of these types:

• Static groups

  A list of users that are added interactively.

• Dynamic groups

  Users belong to the group if they meet an LDAP query. (Requires an LDAP directory as the user store).

  Note: To view the dynamic group query field, you must include it in the task by editing the associated profile screen.

• Nested groups

  Groups containing other groups. (Requires an LDAP directory as the user store).

  Note: To view static, dynamic and nested groups to which a user belongs, use the Groups tab for the User object. The tab appears in the View and Modify User tasks.
