Administer groups

The administration API provides methods for creating, accessing, listing, and deleting Security Verify Access group information from the user registry. The name of a group is not case-sensitive. The following group names all pertain to the same Security Verify Access group:

The PDGroup.createGroup method creates a group in the user registry used by the ISAM policy server. When a group definition exists in the user registry, use the PDGroup.importGroup method instead.

The PDGroup.importGroup method imports an existing group definition from the user registry into ISAM and allows the group definition to be managed by ISAM.

Table 1 lists the group administration functions.

Method Description
PDGroup.createGroup Create the specified group.
PDGroup.importGroup Create an ISAM group by importing an existing group from the user registry.
PDGroup.deleteGroup Delete the specified group.
PDGroup.listGroups List Security Verify Access groups.

For detailed reference information about these methods, see the Javadoc HTML documentation.
