# N

The name of an answer system that this group contains (that is, the name of the configuration section where you configure the system). List on parameter for each system. The parameter name `N` must order consecutively from zero.

You can use system groups to allow you to send the Ask action to a custom group of your systems with a single system name (by specifying the group name in the SystemNames parameter for the Ask action). For example, you might create a group based on language or system type.

System groups might be useful if you have a custom user interface to ask questions, and your systems might change regularly. In this case you can use a static set of groups and change the Answer Server configuration to update the systems, rather than changing the user interface.

In each `[MyGroup]` section, you specify the systems that you want Answer Server to request answers from when you use this group in the Ask action.

The order in which you specify the systems in the `[MyGroup]` section of the configuration file corresponds to the order in which Answer Server attempts to retrieve answers when you request answers from the group. When a particular system exists in more than one group, Answer Server queries it only once.
