Adding a New Service Group

Large organizations may have multiple services grouped under different business units. There may hence be a need to represent groups of services as an entity. To address this requirement, eG Enterprise allows the configuration of service groups in the eG admin interface, and represents the real-time state of the service groups in the eG monitoring interface.

This page allows you to add a new service group, and appears when the Add New Service Group button in the Service Groups page is clicked. The steps to be followed in this regard are as follows:

• Provide the name of the service group in the Service group name textbox.
• The list of all configured services across the infrastructure will then be displayed in the Existing Services list box in this page. From this list box, select the services that are to be grouped under the new service group.
• Next, click on the icon to add the chosen services to the new group. This will result in the display of the selected services in the Services Under New Service Groups list box.
• To remove the service from the service group, select the services from the Services Under New Service Groups list box and click on the icon.
• This in turn will shift the selected services back to the Existing Services list box.
• Finally, click on the Update button to implement the changes.

Note that a single service can be added to any number of service groups.
