Re: Remnants of group profiles...

In your message you stated you are moving from group profiles to 
authorization lists.  I would ask why the change?  I don’t see one method 
as a replacement for the other.  Group profiles are best used to manage 
groups of profiles with that need common authority to objects. 
Authorization lists, work in a similarly way with other system objects. 
They make “groups” of objects easier to maintain by use of the 
authorization list.  I would recommend you continue to use group profiles 
to manage users with similar security needs (users in a department).  Use 
the authorization list to manage multiple objects through one management 
point.  An example of how we use an authorization list is to manage a list 
of workstations that security officer profiles are authorized to sign 
onto.  There is one authorization list that is used on all workstation 
devices that a security officer can sign on to.  When a new security 
officer profile is created that user profile is entered into the 
authorization list.
