Assigning a primary group to a subgroup

When a group has several parent groups, different values may be set for the same license or preference item in two or more parent groups. To ensure that the child group inherits the default settings of a particular parent group, set that group as the primary group.

Procedure

  1. Log in to Spotfire Server and click Users & Groups.
  2. Under Select a category, select Groups.
  3. Highlight the name of the group to which you want to assign a primary group.
  4. In the upper-right pane, click Edit.
  5. In the Edit group dialog, under Assign primary group, select the primary group for the highlighted subgroup.
  6. Click Save.

Result

In the upper-right pane, the selected group is listed as the primary group.
