A repository group is a list of all the Visual LANSA PCs that have a repository that must be synchronized with a LANSA for i System. The Visual LANSA Repository can be part of either a workstation or a server configuration. The use of repository synchronization requires repository groups to be created on LANSA for i. Each Visual LANSA PC can only be in one repository group.
The word "group" can be misleading. There is just one Visual LANSA Repository allowed in each repository group. If you have three Visual LANSA Slave Workstation PCs, then you must create three separate repository groups. When Visual LANSA is used in a server configuration, there is still just one Visual LANSA Repository in each group, but there may be several PCs listed that use the repository. Hence, the group of PCs that share the single Visual LANSA Repository make up a "repository group".
How you set up repository groups depends on how the PCs and the repositories are connected to the IBM i repository:

A further refinement can be added to restrict which changes go to which repositories. This is referred to as a work group. When no work groups are defined, all propagations go to all repositories. (Refer to 6.3.3 What are Work Groups??)
