Cannot add modify permission to Group for Device Collection

Hi All,
I am having trouble adding the modify permission to a device collection. I am not sure why it is not applying since the group has been granted Full Admin to the collection? Please see below:
While the group can access the distribution point properties, all them are greyed out so they cannot make any changes.
BTW the collection comprises of all Distribution points. Is there another permission I need to grant to the Administrative Users (group in question)

I recommend these two articles:

  • Cannot Add user to CMC Group when they are a member of LDAP group

    On PreProduction Server CMC
    Softerra LDAP browser used to verify user is a member of LDAP group
    User does not show as a member of that group in the CMC
    Cannot add user to LDAP group showing in CMC, the same group shows the member in LDAP browser
    On Production Server CMC
    For kicks I logged into the CMC on Production and I found the user is correctly showing as a member of the Group
    Why doesn't the groups in CMC show what is actually showing in the LDAP browser?

    Hi,
    Check if you have also mapped in both servers the same groups. It might be that there are some groups missing in the Pre-prod.
    Also, try restarting the CMS. I have seen similar issues that are solved after forcing the recreation of the graph.
    If after the restart you still can't see the groups, check the mapping on the LDAP server. It might be that both servers do not use the same attribute mappings.

  • How to add a default user group for multiple document type's?

    Hi,
    I am trying to add same default user group for different document types when MA is created. Is there any way to setup using a single "Document Security Template"? Or I need to create different templates for different document types?
    Please confirm.
    Thanks,
    Saloni

    Hi Saloni,
    Based on what your specific requirement, it might be easier to do it with scripting.
    If you are doing it using Document Security Templates, you would have to create a Document Security Template for each of the 6 MA types and assign the default group. Create another one and leave the Document Type field blank, so it will apply to the other 4 MA types that don't have a default group.
    Regards,

  • I suddenly cannot add/edit users or groups!!! (Lion Server)

    I suddenly cannot add/edit users or groups!!! (Lion Server)
    On the latest Mac Mini Server Lion 10.7.2
    Everything was working fine at first, I'm pretty sure either since i've upgraded to 10.7.2 or since we try to connect Windows8 to the server, Lion Server is not working to good anymore, from that time I cannot add/edit users or groups & assign any users to any goups, the + sign looks desable, and everything seems pretty glichy. The other thing I have notice is that a huge amount of Users & Groups has been added without my consent.
    Do I have to ReInstall Lion Server??
    Why do I have all these random Users & Groups listed? (see screenshot)

    I had the same issue.  I opened the Workgroup Manager application and noticed the message "not authenticated as diradmin to directory: /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1" was under the icon bar at the top of the popup screen.  When I clicked on that bar I entered the diradmin username and my password.  After I exited the authentication dialogue box the message now read "Authenticated as diradmin to directory: /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1."
    At that point I had full privalages in both the Workgroup Manager and Server App to create users and groups.
    Not sure if this why the problem occurred in the first place but at least I resolved it without any major problems.

  • Growfs: cannot get partition size, Inappropriate ioctl for device

    Hi ,
    I am trying to increase the filesystem. I did first
    #metattach d37 1G
    d37: Soft Partition has been grown
    and then
    # growfs -M <mount point> d37
    devinfo: /dev/md/dsk/d38: Inappropriate ioctl for device
    growfs: cannot get partition size
    What is the problem, can anyone help me?
    Thanks in advance,

    looking at the response you got an error message for d38, either your have increased the size of the wrong metadevice or you may have forgotten to increase the size of the opposing sub mirror plex, if d37 and d38 form a mirror, you need to post a metastat and a df -k, to allow us to see what your config is.

  • Client Settings for Device collections Vs Client Settings for User collections

    I noticed there are "Client Settings" set for each User and Group in SCCM. I want all my "Client Settings" configured by Device Collections not User Collections, what can I do? Can someone explain the difference between those?
    Thanks
    James A+, Network+, MCP

    One is for user settings on a client and the other is for device settings on a client. As you can imagine user settings can only be deployed to user collections and device settings can only be deployed to device collections.
    For more information about the user and device settings see:

  • Nested Security Groups in Device Collections

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to create a device collection with a dynamic query containing nested Security Groups(Active directory).
    Following is the a sample-
    Security Group 'A' has the following members-
    1) Security Group 'C'
    2) Security Group 'D'
    3) User 'John'
    4) User 'Dave'
    I'm trying to create a device-collection in SCCM 2012 referencing this Security Group 'A' and my intent is to have all members of SG 'C' & 'D' to be part of it along with John & Dave.
    thanks in advance.

    Within ConfigMgr, "Security Group A" will be listed as a Security Group Name with all the direct members of "Security Group A" and the members of "Security Group B" and "Security Group C".
    So, simply querying for "Security Group A" should be sufficient.

  • Cannot add people to Skype Group Voice call

    Everyday I usually go in a skype call with my friends, I use the PC version of skype and I always host the call as my friends use the Xbox One version. The xbox party system is horrible so we use skype instead. But for some reason, today, I can no longer host a call with more than 1 person. I cant call groups either. This is quite a pain. I have tried un installing and re installing, resetting my pc and I also created a new account and it still wouldnt let me call more than 1 person. I also tried calling two PC users of skype, I was still, only able to call one. Any help is much appreicated. Thanks!

  • New i photo app...AWFULL. No events shown...cannot add or change the music for a slideshow...It was so easy before

    What has happened!!??? Slideshow set up was so easy before...now I cannot change the music ..have looked at the instructions,,no good, does not work. WAS SO EASY BEFORE.
    also, where are my EVENTS files???

    Moments in Photo are the new Events.  There's a way to simulate events in Photos.
    When the library was first migrated there was a folder created titled iPhoto Events and all migrated iPhoto Events are represented by an album in the folder. To open the sidebar if it's not open use the Option+Command+S key combination.
    When new photos are imported into the Photos library go to the Last Import smart album, select all the photos and use the File ➙ New Album menu option or use the key combination Command+N.  Name it as desired.  It will appear just above the iPhoto Events folder where you can drag it into the iPhoto Events folder
    When you click on the iPhoto Events folder you'll get a simulated iPhoto Events window.
    The downside to the simulation is that the Album/Events can only be sorted automatically by Title. But they can be sorted manually.  Ask Apple for more sorting options in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.
    Now if you want to merge Album A into Album B click on Album A in the sidebar.  Select all of the photos in A and drag them onto the Album B icon in the sidebar.  Check to make sure all of the photos are in Album B and before deleting Album A.

  • Cannot add contact by using pin for bb messenger

    im having a hard time adding contacts using the pin. i tried to used it once, and it worked. but now i want to add contact by pin # again, i cant. des anybody know why ?

    There could be several reason... one of the most common is that the other user is on a corporate BES account and receipt or use of the BlackBerry Messenger is disabled.
    Otherwise, I would make sure the other users' PIN is correct. Make sure THEY also delete any pending requests, first.
    Then use the PIN request to the add the contact, it is the most reliable.
    Also--make certain the other user has a BlackBerry Data Plan on their BlackBerry... not a generic data plan.

  • Cannot add memeber to group

    Hello since today I've a strange problem with SDS version 5.2.4.
    I cannot add member to 2 groups because in the group edit entry I see only "general" and "languages" but not "members".
    The problem is only in two of the 30 groups that I've.
    Regards
    Davide

    Update - I have potentially found a workaround.
    I removed D:\LUN1\Data from its PG.
    I was then able to create the new PG to include D:\Backup.
    I was then able to modify the original PG to re-include the NTFS mount D:\LUN1\Data without error, just a consistency check.
    Seems to be a little inconsistent...

  • Inappropriate ioctl for device

    Hello,
    I have some zones set up in solaris 10. When i try to scp a file to any of the zones, i get the following error:
    "shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Inappropriate ioctl for device"
    1. /export/home is mounted using lofs in to the zone from the parent.
    2. This does not happen when i scp something to the parent
    3. This does not happen on an account which is local to the zone, whose default shell is bash
    3. This does not happen on an NIS account whose default shell is ksh
    4. This does happen on all NIS accounts who have a default shell of bash, even if there is nothing in their home directory (ie, no .bashrc).
    5. There is no mention of tty in /etc/profile or /etc/.login
    6. I have tried changing the default TERM to vt100 from xterm, it still happens
    7. The error does not present itself upon a normal ssh login
    8. the error [n]does[n] show up when i do something like `ssh myzone "id"` from another box or zone.
    If i don't mount /export/home from the parent in to the zone, i do not get this error. There must be some problem with how i set this up maybe? Here's the zonecfg info:

    I've been googling for a long time and no one seems to have found a resolution. Does anyone have insight in to this problem?

    The problem maybe a permissions on your parent directory, I had a similar error:
    root@elliot:~ # ls -ald ../
    drwx-----x 9 root root 512 Feb 15 14:33 ../
    jemurray@freiwald:~ $ scp hat.txt elliot.nts.wustl.edu:
    shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: Permission denied
    hat.txt 100% |**********************************************************************************| 1428 00:00
    root@elliot:~ # chmod 755 ../
    root@elliot:~ # ls -ald ../
    drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 512 Feb 15 14:33 ../

    We used to try and have our main /export/home directory 701 permissions, but we received this error. Permissions 755 make the problem go away. Not the best answer, but for the users we have on our systems, it is not a big deal.
