fix

Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) does not currently enumerate the memberships of nested groups when viewing group membership.  DRA only enumerates the group membership itself and displays only the users, contacts, or other groups that are members.  This functionality is the same as native tools like Active Directory Users and Computers (ADU&C).

An Enhancement Request has been opened with Development to include this functionality in a future version of Directory and Resource Administrator.



note

You can enumerate the membership of nested groups using the Command Line Interface (CLI):

ea account@groupmembers(name of group) display.

If necessary, you can pipe the results of the command to a text file:

ea account@groupmembers(name of group) display > NameOfTextFile.txt.
