# Admin Group Management

## Purpose

Use this form to enable or disable the presentation of alarm information for the SDS Administrative Group.

WARNING: The Admin Group Management application is intended for Admin Groups of up to 20 nodes. If the number of nodes exceeds 20, then the application will stop processing ALL Multi-node Management (MNM) functions (such as Reach Through, Group Alarm information, Ftp Backup, etc.) for ALL nodes in the group. Two software logs are also generated: one when the 20-node threshold is reached and a second when it is exceeded. Reduce the number of nodes in the Admin Group to 20 or fewer to re-start MNM processing.
