As of ZCS 6.0, it's not possible to create group rosters (where the IM Buddy List is pre-populated with all the members of a group) through the admin web interface. This functionality is slated for ZCS 7.0. However, it is possible to do so via the IM SOAP API.
The following bash script, which should be run from the CLI as the zimbra user, will reciprocally add all members of a Distribution List (defined in the admin web interface). It's not elegant, but it works.
#!/bin/bash
if [ "$#" == "1" ]
then
members=$(zmsoap --type admin --verbose --zadmin \
GetDistributionListRequest/dl="$1" @by="name" | \
grep dlm | sed -e 's/.*<dlm>\(.*\)<\/dlm>/\1/g')
for member in $members
do
for target in $members
do
if [ $member != $target ]
then
uname=$(zmmailbox -z -m $target gid -v | \
grep zimbraPrefFromDisplay | \
sed -e 's/.*: "\(.*\)",/\1/')
zmsoap --type im --verbose --zadmin \
--mailbox $member IMSubscribeRequest \
@addr=$target @name=$uname @op="add"
zmsoap --type im --verbose --zadmin \
--mailbox $target IMAuthorizeSubscribeRequest \
@addr=$member @authorized="true"
fi

else
echo "$0 usage: $0 group@zimbra.domain.edu"
fi
