The group name. The limit is 64 characters.

You may use the following characters when you create a group name.

Upper and lower case alphabetic characters (A–Z)

Numbers (0–9)

Single quote (')

The ‘at’ sign (@)

Forward slash (/)

Space (except as the first character)

Double byte characters (such as alpha-numeric Chinese characters)

Do not give a group or subgroup a the same name as system-defined roles. For example, do not name a group "Admin," which is a role name used in Campaign. Doing so can cause problems during upgrades.

IBM® EMM names preserve case for display purposes, but use case-insensitive rules for comparison and creation (i.e., you cannot create both Admin and admin as as separate group names).

When you create a subgroup, it is a good idea to give your subgroup a name that relates it to its parent group.

The group description. The limit is 256 characters.

It is helpful to include the roles you plan to give the group or subgroup in the description. Then you can see at a glance on the group detail page both the roles and users.

Available only when multiple partitions are configured.

If you assign a partition to a group, the members of that group are members of that partition. A user can be a member of only one partition.
