Create a calendar group

A calendar group controls when the agent is allowed to run on the computers in the group. A computer can only be a member of one calendar group at a time: when you add it to a calendar group, it’s removed from the calendar group it was in.

  1. In Configuration Management, expand your Configuration Management Point, then Groups → System Groups.

  2. Right-click Calendar Groups (or a folder under it) and select Create group….

  3. On the Create Calendar Group page, enter a Name and, optionally, a Description. The name must be unique among the calendar groups on the point.

  4. Optional: enter a Change description. If your system requires a change description, you must enter one.

    Create Calendar Group page with the Name, Description and Change description fields

  5. Click Finish.

  6. On the The group was created successfully page, choose what to do next:

    • Create a schedule for the new group opens the schedule form for the group.
    • Create another group at the same location starts the wizard again.
    • I am done closes the wizard.

    Wizard page with the options Create a schedule for the new group, Create another group at the same location, and I am done

The group appears under Calendar Groups. To set the time window for the agent later, see Schedule groups.
