2. Select the application profile for which you want to add a critical component group, then click Edit/View Application Profile. The Components list appears.
3. In the Components section, click Add critical component group.
   
   The Critical Component Group information appears.

   • Description. (Optional) Enter additional information about the critical component group.
   • State Configuration. Select a configuration for the critical component group. For example, if CPU Utilization component is down and the Disk Utilization component is down, then the component group is down.
