Place your Agent Objects in an Agent Group (r12.0 SP2)

If you have many Agent objects, we recommend using Agent Groups because several Agent objects can be added or removed from a policy at the same time. For example, you can create one Agent group for your protected resources and another for your unprotected resources. This section describes how to create Agent Groups, but if you are an experienced SiteMinder user, you can use existing Agent Groups instead.

1. Click Infrastructure, Agents, Agent Group, Create Agent Group.

   The Create Agent dialog appears.
