Thanks to you both for your response. Pete, What I'm actually trying to do is break up my databases between different business units for monitoring/alerting. I was using the Prod/Dev/Test model, but I was actually wanting to do something like: AdminGrp0 --> NonProd --> (no underlying groups) AdminGrp0 --> Prod --> (no underlying groups) AdminGrp0 --> Mission Critical --> BusinessUnit1 and BusinessUnit2 (2 groups) AdminGrp0 --> ExternalDepartments --> ExtDept1 , ExtDept2 , ExtDept3 , ExtDept4 , ExtDept5 , ExtDept6 , ExtDept7 (7 groups) Each of the groups at the bottom will have different monitoring needs. In our current EM10g setup, we have them all separated within Targets --> Groups --> (11 different monitoring groups). I saw the admin groups in 12c and thought I'd be able to better organize the business needs within different Administrative groups. Is that possible? Thanks in advance for your help! -Scott On Wed, Jul 3, 2013 at 1:48 PM, Peter Sharman <pete.sharman@xxxxxxxxxx>wrote: > Scott > > Deba beat me to it. :) > > I just had one question - is there a reason WHY you want them to be > different?
