Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) includes a built-in policy called $GroupSizePolicy.  This policy by default, is configured to enforce a 5000 group membership limit.  This policy can be modified to increase or decrease the maximum number of members that can be added to a group by performing the following steps:

Directory and Resource Administrator 7.x

  1. Launch the 'DRA Delegation and Configuration' client interface, logged in as a DRA Admin.
  2. Expand the Policy and Automation Management node.
  3. Select the Policy node.
  4. Select $GroupSizePolicy, right-click and select Properties.
  5. Select the Maximum Group Members tab.
  6. Specify the maximum number of members that can be added to a group, in the "Maximum number of members" field.
  7. Click OK

Directory and Resource Administrator 6.x

  1. Launch the 'Directory and Resource Administrator MMC' interface, logged in as a Built-in Admin.
  2. Expand the Policy and automation management node.
  3. Select the Policy node.
  4. Select the $GroupSizePolicy and click Properties.
  5. Select the Parameters tab.
  6. Specify the maximum number of members that can be added to a group in the "Maximum members" field.
  7. Click OK

 

 



note
The $GroupSizePolicy is enabled by default and can be disabled.
