System-wide and Organization-specific Policy Enforcement
Modifying Scope of a Design Time Policy
Refining the Object Scope
Scope refers to the set of properties that determine when a policy is enforced. For a design time policy, scope is determined by the Applicable Types, Event Types, and Organization properties of the policy, which are described here:
Property
Description
Applicable Types
The list of asset types applicable to the policy.
Note:
When you select a base type, for example, a Service asset type that has virtual types, for example, Virtual Service, Virtual REST Service, associated to it, and the Inherit Base Type Policies option is enabled for certain of the virtual types, be aware that the policy you create is applied to instances of the base type and instances of the virtual types.
You can optionally restrict a policy to specific instances of the selected Applicable Type by specifying additional selection criteria.
Event Types
The list of event types applicable to the policy.
Note:
Not all Event Types occur for all Applicable Types.
Important:
The OnCollect, OnMove, and OnExport events are designed to execute handler and collector processes. Do not use these events unless you are creating a handler or a collector policy. The improper use of these event types can damage the registry.
Organization
Determines whether the policy belongs to a specific organization or is system-wide.
