The following portion of the topology-group.data.template file shows the input format of the topology-group.data.template file and the relationship keywords (in bold) that can be stated between HierarchicalGroups and children or member groups:

# HierarchicalGroup <group> children <group1> <group2> ...
# HierarchicalGroup <group> members  <class1::instance1> <class2::instance2> ...
# HierarchicalGroup <group> members  file:<//foo/bar/group.members>

The members relationship keyword corresponds to ConsistsOf in the ConsistsOf/MemberOf ICIM-defined relationship set, and the children relationship keyword corresponds to ChildGroups in the ChildGroups/ParentGroup ICIM-defined relationship set.

The Smarts Service Assurance Manager Configuration Guide provides information about defining and importing HierarchicalGroups.
