Deactivating a Run-Time Policy
You can deactivate a run-time policy by using the Run-Time Policy Details page. Alternatively, you can also deactivate a run-time policy by using the Run-Time Policies page in CentraSite Control.
To deactivate a run-time policy in CentraSite, you must have one of the following permissions:
*To deactivate 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 deactivate that policy unless you have permission to manage run-time policies for organization ABC.
*To deactivate a system-wide policy, you must have the Manage System-Wide Run-Time Policies permission.
Deactivating a run-time policy causes CentraSite to suppress enforcement of the policy. You usually deactivate a policy for the following reasons:
*To suspend enforcement of a particular policy (temporarily or permanently).
*To edit a policy (for example, to modify the scope of a policy or change its action list).
To deactivate a policy, you change the policy to the Suspended state. Switching the policy to this state triggers the Automatic Policy Deactivation policy, which deactivates the policy. Switching the policy to the Retired state also deactivates the policy, but you do not want to switch a policy to this state unless you intend to deactivate it permanently. After you place a policy in the Retired state, you cannot reactivate it.
When you deactivate a policy, CentraSite does not deactivate a policy if it is in the process of being executed. If you attempt to deactivate a policy while it is executing, your state change request fails. If this occurs, wait for a period time and then try to deactivate the policy again.
* To deactivate a run-time policy
1. In CentraSite Control, go to Policies > Run-Time.
This displays a list of defined run-time policies in the Run-Time Policies page.
2. Locate the policy you want to deactivate and select Details from its context menu.
This opens the Run-Time Policy Details page.
3. In the Policy Information panel, click Change State.
4. In the Change Lifecycle State dialog box, select the Suspended state (to deactivate it temporarily) or the Retired state (to deactivate it permanently).
5. Click OK.
