Yes.

=46rom "man scpm":

   new concept: Resoure Groups
       Resource Groups are the successors of Resource Sets. The inten=ADtion
       is to logically group resources together so the user  does not have =
to
       care about which services need which configuration files.
       See info documentation for details.

Don't worry too much. Just try it out. You won't break anything.
