Parameters
Input
context
An opaque handle bound to a registry server. Use sec_rgy_site_open( ) to acquire a bound handle.
global_name
The global (full) name of the group in sec_rgy_name_t form.

cell_idp
A pointer to the UUID of the home cell of the group whose name is in question.
group_namep
The local (with respect to the home cell) name of the group in sec_rgy_name_t form.
group_idp
A pointer to the UUID of the group whose name is in question.
status
A pointer to the completion status. On successful completion, the function returns error_status_ok. Otherwise, it returns an error.
Description
The sec_id_parse_group( ) routine translates a global group name into a cell name and a cell-relative group name. It also returns the UUIDs associated with
