So - over the years I had gotten used to using "policies" (with the templates they contained) in conjunction with "selection lists" - the policies "spun up" jobs for each selection list, according to the details of the templates in the policy. That way, if I wanted to change something about when or how a server was backed up, I just changed the policy/template and it changed for all servers/selection lists that were protected by that policy.
Simple.
Now, though ... it seems I have to create all the policy/template kinds of details for each and every server/selection list? Wow - that's alot of work!
Is "enabling groups" the answer?
How do I use them? Is it like creating a policy with templates, and then these options apply to any server I add to the group? Or ... what?
I have looked over some of the docs, and toured some of the intro/video material, but it seems that none of these ever answer the direct simple questions and help me to imagine how I may use the groups feature.
Anyone care to shed some light for me?

that helped, yes thank you. Basically a group IS a replacement for the policy container ...
