Create Groups

Aug 14, 2017

  1. From the AppDNA menus, choose Configure > AD & ConfigMgr > Manage Groups.

  2. On the right side of the screen, click the item on which you want to base the new AppDNA group.

  3. Drag the item from the right side to where you want to place it in the tree on the left side of the screen. Alternatively, click the item in the tree on the left under which you want the new group to appear and click Create.

    If the AD or Configuration Manager item has child items, AppDNA creates a corresponding set of nested groups. AppDNA automatically adds any applications associated with the AD group or Configuration Manager collection to the newly created application group. If the AD group or Configuration Manager collection has more than 20 associated applications, AppDNA displays a warning message to check that you want to proceed.

Groups created through the AD & ConfigMgr Collections screen are visible and editable in the Groups screen.

Add associated applications to a group

To add applications associated with an AD group or Configuration Manager collection to an AppDNA group:

  1. From the AppDNA menus, choose Configure > AD & ConfigMgr > Manage Groups.
  2. Click the group to which you want to add applications.
  3. On the right side of the screen, click the item whose associated applications you want to add to the group.
  4. Click Add.

If the applications that are deployed to the AD group or ConfigMgr collection subsequently changes, you need to update the AppDNA group to reflect the changes.

Remove applications from a group

  1. From the AppDNA menus, choose Configure > AD & ConfigMgr > Manage Groups.
  2. In the tree on the left side, select the applications you want to remove.
  3. On the toolbar, click Remove.
