<p>The <strong>eimAddGroupRegistry()</strong> function adds a group registry
to the EIM domain. Once added, this registry is participating in the EIM
domain. Mapping associations can only be made with identities in registries
that are currently participating in the EIM domain.</p>
<p>A group registry can be used when a person has the same identity on
multiple systems in the enterprise. You can define one association to the
group registry that is used for all registries that are members of the
group registry. The members of the group registry must have the same
case sensitivity attribute (-caseIgnore or -caseExact) as the group.
A group registry cannot be a member of another group registry. You can
manage the members of a group registry using the Change EIM Registry
(eimChangeRegistry) API.</p>
<p>
See <a href="eimmappinglookup.htm">EIM Mapping Lookup Algorithm</a>
to see how associations to group registries are used in the
mapping lookup operation.
</p>
<p>
EIM version 3 must be supported by the local EIM APIs to use this API
(see <a href="eimgetversion.htm">eimGetVersion()</a>--Get EIM Version).

<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<dl>
<dt><em>EIM Data</em></dt>
<dd>Access to EIM data is controlled by EIM access groups. LDAP administrators
also have access to EIM data. The access groups whose members have authority to
the EIM data for this API follow:
<ul>
<li>EIM Administrator</li>
</ul>
</dd>

<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl><!-- ============================================================== -->
<!-- eim -->
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<dt><strong>eim</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;(Input)</dt>
<dd>The EIM handle returned by a previous call to eimCreateHandle(). A valid
connection is required for this function.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<!-- registryName -->
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<dt><strong>registryName</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;(Input)</dt>
<dd>The name for this group registry. This name needs to be unique within the
EIM domain.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<!-- registryType -->
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<dt><strong>registryType</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;(Input)</dt>
<dd>A string form of an OID that represents the registry type and a user name
normalization method. The normalization method is necessary because some
registries are case-independent and others are case-dependent. EIM uses this
information to make sure the appropriate search occurs. When a registry is
case-independent registry user names are converted to uppercase. See eim.h for
a list of predefined types. The type must be either
EIM_REGTYPE_GROUP_REGISTRY_IG ("1.3.18.0.2.33.17-caseIgnore") or
EIM_REGTYPE_GROUP_REGISTRY_EX ("1.3.18.0.2.33.18-caseExact").
<br>
<br>
</dd>
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<!-- description -->
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<dt><strong>description</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;(Input)</dt>
<dd>The description for this new group registry entry. This parameter may be
NULL.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<!-- eimrc -->
<!-- ============================================================== -->
<dt><strong>eimrc</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;(Input/Output)</dt>
<dd>The structure in which to return error code information. If the return
value is not 0, eimrc is set with additional information. This parameter may be
NULL. For the format of the structure, see <a href="eimrc.htm">EimRC--EIM
Return Code Parameter</a>.<br>
