All lines in the original topology-group.data.template file are commented-out (preceded with a pound sign), meaning that by default the Global Manager does not load any hierarchical group definitions from the topology-group.data.template file.

The discussions that follow assume that the name of the group import datafile is topology-group.data.template. Of course, when editing the topology-group.data.template file to create a group import datafile, as explained in “Procedure for creating a group import datafile” on page 78, you can save the file as a new name.
