Overview of an administrative group
An administrative group is a logical categorization of the databases that share something in common. For example, databases located in one region can belong to one administrative group.
An administrative group allows you to organize your databases for better management. To manage the databases under a group, you assign a group administrator. It is mandatory that you create an administrative group and attach databases to it.
