Modifying Scope of a Run-Time Policy

Note:
By default, run-time aspects configured from CentraSite are disabled. However, you can enable them if required. To enable theCentraSite run-time aspects, see Enabling CentraSite Run-Time Aspects. This section is not applicable, if the CentraSiterun-time aspects are not enabled.

Pre-requisites:

To modify the scope of a run-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 Run-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 run-time policies for organization ABC.

To modify the scope of a system-wide policy, you must have the Manage System-Wide Run-Time Policies permission.

You use the Apply policy to all organizations property on the Run-Time Policy Details page to specify a policy's scope.

Note:
After a policy has been created, its Apply policy to all organizations property cannot be changed.
