How managed elements are assigned to groups

A managed element can be a member of one group only.
About group settings
The applied setting or settings of a group determine what parameters are applied to the managed elements that are members of the group. Only one setting may be applied to a group at any given time.
The Settings tab is divided into two sections: Current Settings and Available Settings. The Current Settings section lists the setting that is applied to the group. The Available Settings section lists additional available settings.
About the priority of groups
Matching criteria and priority determine which managed elements are members of what group. When an element matches the criteria for two or more groups, the managed element becomes a member of the group with the highest priority. The Priorities tab lists groups in the order of their priority, from highest to lowest.
