EffectiveIsMembershipRequired

Indicates whether members of this group can remove the group from their currently active set of groups.

Syntax

bool EffectiveIsMembershipRequired {get;}

Property value

Returns true if you can use the adsetgroups command to remove this group from your currently active set of groups.

Discussion

On most UNIX systems, a user can be a member of only a limited number of groups at one time. Because of this limitation, it is useful to be able to change a user’s group membership by adding and removing groups when necessary.

You can use the adsetgroups command to manage the set of Active Directory groups that are available to a UNIX account. You also have the option to specify that membership in a specific group is required in a zone.

If you specify that a group is required, users who are members of the group cannot remove that group from their currently active set of groups. In that case, the EffectiveIsMembershipRequired property returns false.

Exceptions

IsEffectiveMembershipRequired throw an InvalidOperationException if there is only a partial profile.
