Issue 33:
Description: When you create a custom group, you have the ability to select a pre-dened device search query or the ability to
select individual devices and groups to form your newly created custom group.
If you select a device search query as your basis for your custom group content and you subsequently decide to modify the device
search query, the results of the modied device search query is not reected in the custom group. You will have to delete the custom
group and recreate it using the newly modied device search query group.
If you create a custom group using a device search query, you subsequently modify the device search query and then attempt to edit
the custom group that used the device search query in question, the original device search query group gets deleted. So, once you
create a custom group based on a device search query, do not edit it. If you need to modify it, delete it rst and then re-create it.

table of the server.
