Users Guide

Adding Objects to Association Object
Using the Association Object Properties window, you can associate users or user groups, privilege objects, and RAC devices
or RAC device groups. If your system is running on Microsoft Windows 2000 mode or higher, use Universal Groups to span
domains with your user or RAC objects.
You can add groups of Users and RAC devices. The procedure for creating Dell-related groups and non-Dell-related groups is
identical.
