Set User's Primary GID in Auto Zone

Specifies the group identifier (GID) to use as the default primary group for all users. If this policy is not configured, the primary GID for users in Auto Zone is set to one of the following platform-specific values:

  • Mac: 20
  • Linux, Solaris, HPUX, AIX: -1

If you enable this group policy, you must specify an integer from -1 to 2147483647. You cannot leave the GID field blank if you enable this group policy.

If you set this group policy to -1, the primary GID is generated according to the selected scheme:

  • Apple scheme
  • Relative identifier (RID)
  • Active Directory value

This group policy modifies the auto.schema.primary.gid parameter in the agent configuration file.
