Dynamic Groups Page#

The Dynamic Groups page displays the list of dynamic groups. The page is available via Cluster > Dynamic Groups in the left navigation panel.

Dynamic Group Page

A dynamic group provides a way to group nodes based on shared or common attributes, status, or hardware information. They are most useful when targeting an action, such as a reboot, to a group of similar nodes.

Create Dynamic Group#

To create a dynamic group:

  1. Click Add Dynamic Group.

  2. Add details about the dynamic group. Name and Selector are required fields. For details about specifying a selector, see Attribute Groups and Dynamic Groups.

  3. Click Add/Edit Dynamic Group to save your changes.

The new dynamic group appears in the list at the top of the page.

Update Dynamic Group#

To update a dynamic group:

  1. Click the dynamic group name to open the details panel for that group.

  2. Click the edit icon (pencil) to enable changes.

  3. Make updates to the dynamic group.

  4. Click Update to save your changes.

Filter Nodes by Dynamic Group#

There are two ways to filter existing nodes by dynamic group:

  • On the Nodes page, select an existing dynamic group from the Dynamic Group drop-down list. The list of nodes updates to show only nodes within that dynamic group.

  • On the Dynamic Groups page, click the ellipsis (...) on the far right of the row for the dynamic group and select the Apply to nodes action. The Nodes page appears with the dynamic group applied and the list of nodes filtered to show only nodes within that dynamic group.

Delete Dynamic Group#

To delete a dynamic group, click the ellipsis (...) on the far right of the row and select the Delete action.
