Group Naming Parameters

Security groups that own and access a Multi-Principal Path must be in the Group_Prefix_Name-Security_Suffix format. In the table below, the naming components of the security group names in the figure under Multi-Principal Collaborative Storage Policy Overview are identified.

Group Prefix Name	Suffix Separator	Security Suffix
Group1	-	RO
Group1	-	RW

The group prefix names cannot be different. For example, you cannot have Accounting-RW and Sales-RO groups managed by a Multi-Principal Collaborative policy against the same managed path. Multiple groups are considered to be participating in the security of the managed path if they have the same group prefix name up to the well-defined suffix separator string. The suffix separator can be a character or a string of characters and is configured in a Multi-Principal Suffix Mapping Action Block.
