You can search for groups that match the search criteria
that you specify. After selecting one or more groups, these groups
can be members of the same groups as another existing group. For example,
if all groups at the Austin site should belong to the same groups
as an existing group, you can duplicate the groups that the one group
belongs to for all the other groups that you choose.
Note: If the federated repositories configuration has changed
since the application server or deployment manager was started, you
must restart the application server or deployment manager to ensure
that changes to users and groups are saved to the current configuration.

more groups. For example, select Group name.
- In the Search for field, either

the search is case sensitive or case insensitive depends on the user
registry that you are using.

the maximum number of search results that you want to display.
- Click Search. After the search has

criteria.
