Owning Palette: Security VIs

Installed With: DSC Module

Returns a list of groups available on a specific domain. Groups can contain users or other groups. You must manually select the polymorphic instance to use.

Use the pull-down menu to select an instance of this VI.

NI Security Get Group List (Name)

	domain machine is the name of the computer where the domain is located.
	domain name is the name of the domain from which to get a list of groups.
	timeout limits the time that the VI waits for the information to return from the domain. The default is 30 seconds.
	error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs. The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurred before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node. status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE. code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. source specifies the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
	groups principals lists information about group accounts available from the domain. principal type returns whether the specified domain account is a group or user account. principal name returns the name of the user or group account. description returns the description of the user or group account. fullname returns the full name for the user or group account. ID returns the unique identifier of the user or group account.
	error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces. Right-click the error out front panel indicator and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred. code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning.

NI Security Get Group List (Principal)

	domain is the domain principal to which to connect. machine is the name of the computer where the domain is located. name is the name of the domain. ID is the unique identifier of the domain.
	timeout limits the time that the VI waits for the information to return from the domain. The default is 30 seconds.

	groups principals lists information about group accounts available from the domain. principal type returns whether the specified domain account is a group or user account. principal name returns the name of the user or group account. description returns the description of the user or group account. fullname returns the full name for the user or group account. ID returns the unique identifier of the user or group account.

NI Security Get Group List (ID)

	domain is the unique identifier of the domain to connect to.
