Modifying Scope of a Design/Change-Time Policy
Pre-requisites:
To modify the scope of a design/change-time policy in CentraSite, you must have one of the following permissions:
To modify the scope of a organization-specific policy, you must have the Manage Design/Change-Time Policies permission for the organization specified in the scope of the original policy. For example, if the original policy is scoped for organization ABC, you are not permitted to modify the scope of that policy unless you have permission to manage design/change-time policies for organization ABC.
To modify the scope of a system-wide policy, you must have the Manage System-Wide Design/Change-Time Policies permission.
Important:
If you belong to a role that includes the Manage System-Wide Design/Change-Time Policies permission, you have the ability to modify the scope of CentraSite's predefined policies. However, you should not do this. These policies perform critical functions within the registry and must not be modified except under the direction of a technical representative from Software AG.
You use the Scope tab on the Design/Change-Time Policy Details page to specify a policy's scope.
Scope changes are limited by the set of actions currently selected on the Actions tab. That is, CentraSite does not allow you to save a policy if its scope includes object types and events that are not compatible with the current set of specified actions. In some cases, you might need to clear actions from the Actions tab in order to select the object types and event types you need on the Scope tab.
To modify the scope of a design/change-time policy
1. In CentraSite Control, go to Policies > Design/Change Time.
This displays a list of defined design-time and change-time policies in the Design/Change-Time Policies page.
2. Locate the policy whose scope you want to modify, and select Details from its context menu.
This opens the Design/Change-Time Policy Details page.
3. If the policy is active, deactivate it.
You cannot modify the scope of an active policy.
4. Select the Scope tab and specify the following:
In the
Object Types and
Event Types lists, select the object types and event types to which the policy applies.
Optional. In the
Apply policy to objects that meet the following criteria , specify additional selection criteria to narrow the set of objects to which this policy is applied.
5. Click Save.
Note:
If the selected object and event types are not compatible with the current set of actions in the action list, CentraSite does not permit you to save the policy. You must correct the policy's action list or its scope to save the policy successfully.
6. When you are ready to put the policy into effect, activate the policy.
