Excerpt

How to add and remove members from a Permissions Manager Group.The Permissions Manager tool also allows us to create specialized user groups on the Research Data Storage systems and manage those group memberships. 

Only the Group Authorizer will be able to add or remove users from a group. Users cannot submit Permissions Requests for access to a group and there is not an email approval process. Users can only be manually added to groups by the Group Authorizers. Please email rds@bmi.cchmc.org if you want to have a group created for your use or have questions on when a group may be useful.
