Server groups cannot be edited, only deleted.

## Using server groups

Once one or more server groups have been created they can be selected on instance create form:

![select](/_static/images/staff/cloud/server-groups/server-group-select.png)

If a server group is selected, Fleio will attempt to create the instance in that server group. For an instance created
in a server group, the server group will be displayed on the instance details page:

![on-instance](/_static/images/staff/cloud/server-groups/server-group-on-instance.png)

and a list of instances in the group will be displayed on the server group details page:
