2.3.5 Grouping hosts based on count results

You can create a host group of found hosts in order to group hosts that share the same inventory information. For example, after you count hosts by Installed package to create a host group of the hosts that contain Microsoft Word 2000, you can remote-install Microsoft Word 2003 onto all members in that host group.

You can create a new host group or add hosts to an existing host group. You can also remove all hosts from an existing host group, and then add hosts to the group.

For details about how to group hosts based on count results, see 4.2.7 Creating a host group from count results the manual Administrator's Guide Volume 1.
