Groups allow users to share common access to the resources on an endpoint.
Like the UNIX file, unix/etc/group, a RACF user can belong to many groups on the RACF system but is defined to one primary group called the Default Group. In Identity Manager, all groups, including the Default Group, appear as provisioning roles in the browser. In Identity Manager, all groups, including the Default Group, appear as provisioning roles in the browser.
By default, RACF systems use a root group called SYS1. This root is defined as the user's default group if no other group is specified. The user's account appears under the role (default group), but the user also appears under each group that the user is defined to.
You can create and maintain RACF groups using the Endpoint type task view. Use the RACF Group property sheet when managing your groups.
