Groups in EPP are not letting me add computers as entities

  • What version are you using? (OS, client, server, etc.)
    Server: 2604.0.1.0
    Client: 2605.1.2.0
  • For the scenario you’re describing, what settings/configuration do you currently have in place?
    I tested creating a new group called “test” on a fresh deployment of EPP Server (version noted) above and tried to add a computer to that group.
  • What error messages or unexpected behavior are you seeing?
    When I hit save, the page goes back to the list of groups, and my assumption is the computer has been added. However, when I go into the group edit menu, the computer is not listed as a member of that group.
  • What have you tried so far?
    I tried deleting the test group, creating a new one and going through the same steps. However, I am not able to add any machines to the group. The computer I am adding has the latest client version installed (2605.1.20) and its licensed and online. I am seeing this same behavior with other customers on the same server and client version. We tested this in different web browsers and disabled any add-ons, but we are able to consistently recreate the behavior. The same behavior occurs whether I try to add a computer when creating the group, or if I go back to edit it after the group has been created.

Hi Jason,

This is a known issue in server version 2604.

The good new is:

  1. We are aware of the issue, and a fix is scheduled for the next release.
  2. This is only a UI glitch—computers are actually being added to the group. To verify that the computers have been added, you can navigate to Device Control → Computers and check the Groups column.

Zoran,

Thank you for the reply and for providing details on a work around. I will keep an eye out for that next release.

Thanks!
