			The purpose of "Create Resource Group" in QuantaStor is to enable multi-tenancy functionality within QuantaStor through the creation of Resource Groups. There are three types of Resource Groups:

	~~The purpose of "Create~~ Resource Group" in QuantaStor is to organize and manage storage resources within the QuantaStor storage management platform. A resource group allows administrators to group related storage components together and apply policies or configurations to them as a unit. It provides a way to logically organize and manage storage resources more efficiently.		* Storage Volume Resource Groups

	''Storage ~~Clouds'' are multi-tenant containers for grouping users with resources such as ''storage volumes'', ''network shares'', and provisioning quotas for self-service provisioning from ''storage pools''~~. ~~Users that are assigned to a ''storage cloud'' should~~ be ~~assigned the '''Cloud User''' or~~ the ~~'''Cloud Administrator''' role so that their view~~ of ~~the available resources in the grid or appliance is limited to just those that have been added to their assigned ''storage cloud''~~.		Storage Volume Resource Groups enable one to isolate Storage Volumes to specific networks via selection of the Subnet w/CIDR. This feature will be largely replaced with the introduction of Portal Groups into QuantaStor 6.6.

	'''C'''hallenge-'''H'''andshake '''A'''uthentication '''P'''rotocol (CHAP), is an authentication scheme used by '''P'''oint-to-'''P'''oint '''P'''rotocol (PPP) servers to validate the identity of remote clients. CHAP periodically verifies the identity of the client by using a three-way handshake. This happens at the time of establishing the initial link, '''L'''ink '''C'''ontrol '''P'''rotocol (LCP), and may happen again at any time there after.		* Object Tenant Resource Groups

	~~Here are~~ the ~~main purposes~~ and ~~benefits~~ of ~~creating~~ a Resource Group in ~~QuantaStor:~~		Object Tenant resource groups enable one to associate Management Users with Object Storage Tenants so that they can self-service manage the Object Storage Users and Buckets within the Object Storage Tenants assigned to the group. This is ideal for organizations with multiple departments that have IT leaders that need scoped access to create/delete/modify object users and buckets within their area of responsibility. Simply create a Resource Group for each department and then add the Management Users you want to administrate the Resource Group into the group. In addition the Management Users should be assigned a Role that limits there ability to manage just buckets, object users, and object user access keys at the 'Resource Group' scope. That is all set in the Role Create and Role Modify dialogs.

	*~~Logical Organization: A~~ Resource Group helps in logically organizing storage resources within QuantaStor. Administrators can group together storage volumes, file systems, storage pools, or other related components that serve a common purpose or belong to a specific application or client. This organization simplifies the management of storage resources, making it easier to locate and manage related components.		* Network Share Resource Groups (Service Container Groups)

	*Policy Application: By creating a Resource Group, administrators can apply policies or configurations to the group as a whole. Policies can include data protection levels, replication settings, performance settings, access control rules, or any other configuration parameters relevant to the grouped resources. Applying policies at the group level ensures consistent settings across multiple resources, reducing the need for manual configuration and minimizing errors.

	*Simplified Management: A Resource Group enables simplified management of related storage resources. Instead of individually managing each resource, administrators can perform common management tasks on the entire group simultaneously. For example, they can allocate capacity, adjust performance parameters, or apply data protection settings to the entire group in a single operation. This streamlines administrative tasks and saves time.

	*Performance Optimization: QuantaStor provides performance optimization features that can be applied at the Resource Group level. By grouping together storage resources that have similar performance requirements or are accessed by the same application or client, administrators can apply performance settings, such as caching or quality of service (~~QoS~~) ~~parameters, to optimize the performance of the entire group. This ensures consistent and efficient performance for the grouped resources.~~

	*Data Protection and Replication: Resource Groups can be used to manage data protection and replication settings. Administrators can define replication rules or data protection levels at the group level, ensuring that all resources within the group have consistent replication or data protection configurations. This simplifies the management of data protection and replication, making it easier to ensure data availability and resilience.

	*Granular Access Control: QuantaStor offers access control features, such as permissions and user management, at the Resource Group level. By creating Resource Groups and applying access control rules to them, administrators can control and manage user access to the grouped storage resources. This provides a granular level of access control, allowing administrators to define who can access and modify the resources within the group.

	Overall, the purpose of creating a Resource Group in QuantaStor is to provide a logical and efficient way to organize and manage storage resources, apply policies and configurations at a group level, simplify administration tasks, optimize performance, and ensure consistent data protection and access control.

	It's important to note that the specific options and capabilities available for creating Resource Groups may vary depending on the version and features of QuantaStor. Therefore, referring to the official documentation or contacting the OSNexus support team for accurate instructions and guidance on creating Resource Groups in QuantaStor is recommended.

			Network Share Resource Groups allow one to assign direct access to a select group of Network Shares by one or more containers which in QuantaStor are setup via 'Service Configurations'. This allows one to setup additional protocols and services such as FTP and Resilio and have those services be highly-available as QuantaStor will orchestrate their failover in the case of HA Pools automatically.
