common user group naming

This policy defines what default Group name will be assigned to all user accounts on all allocated and utility server systems at each of the participating centers. The cross center storage infrastructure being introduced by the HPCMP Enhanced User Environment (HEUE) requires that users’ group names be common across the storage systems at the centers and so all centers are required to adopt a common naming convention for user group names. User defined groups with user defined names will still be allowed as long as the group names do not conflict with other group names used in the program.
