Description
This file defines a group of managed hosts in JP1/IM.
When a command is to be executed in JP1/IM by means of an automated action or a JP1/IM - View operation, you can set a group of hosts where the command is to be executed and then execute the command on all of those hosts in the batch mode.
When the definitions are applied
The specified information takes effect after you execute the jcocmddef command.
If you set a logical host in a cluster configuration, set the file at both the primary and secondary nodes.

Express a host group name using from 1 to 32 alphanumeric characters. The space character and two-byte characters cannot be used.
You execute a command on a host group by specifying the name of the host group. For example, you can specify a host group name in d=execution-host-name-or-group-name in the automated action definition file or in Target host in the Execute Command window.
