Creating a Server Group

To manage Windows Server 2012 systems in groups, it is necessary to create a server group. You can do so from the Server Manager Dashboard as follows:

1. Click Option 4, Create a Server Group.

2. Enter a server group name.

3. Select systems from either the server pool, Active Directory, or DNS, as appropriate. Use the Ctrl or Select key to select more than one server.

4. Click the right-arrow key to add the computers to the Selected list.

5. Click Finish.

This updates the Roles and Server Groups view to include the new group.
