Introduction
The resource type uniquely describes a type of resource within a target system. You can build and structure your own resource types depending on your needs. For example in Active Directory there are Security Groups and Distribution Groups but you might wanna structure those groups even further by creating your own resource types within the CoreOne Meta Directory. By doing so you could further divide Security Groupsinto Application Groups which are being used in your software distribution software and File System Groups which are being used to control access on your local file system. This categorization not only helps you to structure your groups but also enables you to create Resource Definition Templates which then can be used to create managed resources.
A resource type is always linked to a target system and also defines the available attributes for the given type.
