Grouping Devices Using the HP Management Console Grouping devices according to specified criteria makes it easier for administrators to manage them. Devices can be grouped automatically according to any of their properties, or manually assigned to groups in any way that is suitable for your requirements. Note that you can also pre-assign the group to which a device belongs from the device itself by editing its agent configuration settings. Dynamic Grouping Dynamic grouping allows you to automatically group devices by specific properties. For example, you could create a grouping scheme that will group all devices by their CPU type or agent version. You can specify more than one grouping property for a group, and you can define up to six customizable grouping properties. Once you have defined the properties associated with a dynamic grouping scheme, all devices with matching properties will automatically be assigned to the relevant group, including any devices added to Device Manager in the future.
