Any group object displayed in the Explorer panel represents a collection of similar object types. Groups can also be created automatically, such as when a provisioning adapter discovers a local repository on a VM host. For example, the vsphere provisioning adapter, upon discovery of a VM host, automatically creates a local repository for that VM host and places the created repository in a vsphere repository group. You can also create groups manually in the Orchestration Console, either by clicking the menu and choosing or by right-clicking a Job Group object (anywhere in the Job hierarchy) and selecting .
