CentraSite uses some of these lifecycles to govern particular types of registry objects (Policy objects, for example). These lifecycle models have system policies associated with them. You can customize these lifecycle models in only limited ways. These lifecycle models are already active when CentraSite is installed.
Other lifecycle models are treated as user-defined lifecycle models. These lifecycle models are provided to you as a convenience. You can use them instead of creating your own models from scratch. You may customize these lifecycle models as required. These lifecycle models are not active when you install CentraSite. If you want to use them, you must activate them.
