As a member of a particular group, user can submit a group job. The job will be owned by that group. All members of the group will be able to ack/nack, change priority, edit whiteboard, and change retention tag. The root password used in the job will be the group root password (if one is set).
This BZ only covered the addition of the ability to have a group associated with a job and all the SSH keys for the group pushed to provisioned systems.
Setting a group root password was moved to BZ #908186
Having full access to jobs for groups of which you are a member was moved to BZ #961580
Verified. Can successfully submit group job via Web UI and command line.
Web UI:Add an optional attribute group="somegroup" to the <job/> element directly to the job XML.
