Chapter 15: Grouping Units 193
Unit Groups
Unit groups may be used to organize units. You may create nested unit groups (unit groups within
unit groups) to organize units hierarchically. Units may belong to multiple groups. For example,
you may have a DSR switch that belongs to two global groups and three personal groups.
There are two types of unit groups: global and personal. A global unit group can be viewed by any
user logged into the DSView 3 software. A personal unit group may only be viewed by the person
who created it. Up to 32 personal unit groups may be created by a user.
There are two top-level system-defined unit group containers: global root and personal root. These
group containers cannot be deleted. They can contain other unit groups, but not individual units. All
global unit groups are descendents of global root. All personal unit groups are descendents of
personal root.
There is also a system-defined unit group named Unassigned, which is a descendent of the global
root. This unit group automatically contains all units that are not assigned to any other global unit
groups. This group cannot be deleted, and you cannot add subgroups (children) to the Unassigned
unit group.
Global unit groups may only be created, modified or deleted by users with DSView 3 software
administrator, user administrator or appliance administrator privileges. The global root, personal
root and unassigned unit groups cannot be deleted.
