Now, for the membership rules. Above, notice the four buttons to the right of the "Membership rules" heading. For a new collection, two of the buttons are grayed out. They two grayed out buttons, the third and fourth from the left, are used to make changes to and delete existing collections, respectively.
The first two buttons provide you with different ways to create a new collection. The first button starts the Create Direct Membership Rule Wizard, enabling you to select specific SMS-managed resourced to include in the new collection. The second button opens the Query Rule Properties dialog box, which gives you the capability to add resources that match the query parameters you specify.
I'll start with the direct membership method. Click the first button to start this process. The wizard gives you a screen on which you can choose a resource class--system, user group, or user resource--and an associated resource class. Now, specify the value that will limit what gets included in the group.
