Remove a device from a resource grouping

Remove a device from a resource grouping to break the link between its security permissions and those of the application or area to which it belongs.
When a device is removed from a resource grouping, the security permissions for the device revert to what they were for either the logical name of the device — if the device is associated with a logical name — or for the network relative path of the device. The changes take effect immediately when applied.
Prerequisites
Removing a device from a resource group requires these permissions for the application or area:
  • Common > Configure Security
  • Common > List Children
  • Common > Read
