The associated group attribute contains the value of the class statement of the associated group.

This attribute is a keyed attribute and is required in the event generation group.

The syntax of the associated group definition is:

name = "associated group"
id = 5
description = "The class string of the group that is associated "
              "with the events defined in this Event Generation "
              "group."
type = string ( <size> )
access = read-only
storage = common

value = "<class string>"

If a management application discovers an event generation group, it can determine the associated group by issuing a DmiListFirstComponentCmd with a class filter of EventGeneration|| and a keylist containing the value of this attribute.
