Group Management

The Groups feature is a powerful tool that lets administrators organize data and control who can view it. When a performance issue is reported, the permission groups assigned to user accounts let operators effectively analyze data in a logical flow. They can drill down from data averaged from all managed items in a group into information about a single item from the same time frame.

The groups you create and the structure that contains them are key requirements for optimizing CA Performance Center. We recommend consulting with a CA technical representative to develop a strategy for assigning permission groups that meets your requirements.

Start working with groups on the Manage Groups page. This page displays the Groups tree in the left pane. Tabbed options in the right pane give access to group Items, Properties, and Rules. Use the options on these tabs to populate and edit groups.
