You can use the vserver services name-service unix-group create
command to create UNIX groups that are local to the SVM. Local UNIX groups are used with local UNIX users.

Create a local UNIX group:
vserver services name-service unix-group create -vserver vserver_name -name group_name -id integer
-name group_name
specifies the group name. The length of the group name must be 64 characters or fewer.-id integer
specifies the group ID that you assign.

vs1::> vserver services name-service unix-group create -vserver vs1 -name eng -id 101
