In Server Backup Manager, groups allow you to set permissions for several users at once. When you create groups in Data Center Console, they are automatically "pushed down" to all backup managers connected to the Console. To find out more about Server Backup Manager Groups, see [Understanding the Three User [User Types].

Follow the instructions below to create a new group in the Data Center Console.

...

1. In the Main menu, click *Groups*. The Data Center Console displays the Groups windows as shown in the following image.

The list of all Groups is displayed. The following columns are shown:
* *Name* \- The name of the group.
* *Description* \- The description of the group.
* *Users* \- The number of users assigned to the group.
* *Actions* \- You can edit or delete a group. See [Delete groups], [Edit group properties].

See more information about the "Groups" screen in [Access groups].

2. In the Groups menu, click *Create New Group*.

3. The "Create New Group" window will appear. Define the group name and description (optionally). Select the users you would like to add from the drop-down menu.

7. To set permissions to a group, you need to assign it to an Agent. Select the Agent from the drop-down menu and click "Add."

8. Now you can select permissions. Check the box next to the type of permission you want to assign. Or select "Full Control" to grant all available permissions to the group.
