Group Object

A Group object contains information about a single group of users. It is a single element in the returned collection of Group objects, such as a list of all groups included in a specific schema repository.

Groups allow you to administer users as one or more groups, which is more convenient than administering each user separately. Use the Group object to get or modify the properties of a group, including the group's name and the databases to which it is subscribed. You can also add users to the group.

Changes you make to groups are immediately reflected in the schema repository (master database) but not the associated user databases. To update the user databases, use the user administration tools in HCL Compass Designer. See "Updating user database information".
