Integration Server 10.15 | Web Services Developer’s Guide | Defining Policies for Web Services (WS-Policy) | WS-Policy Files | Policy ID
 
Policy ID
A policy ID is a unique identifier for a WS-Policy. A policy ID:
*Must conform to XML NCName (no colon) format. That is, the policy ID should begin with a letter or underscore and should not contain a space or colon.
*Must be specified using the wsu:Id attribute, for example:
wsu:Id="policyID"
*Must be unique among all Integration Server policies that are defined in policy files.
If you create a new policy file with a policy that has the same policy ID as an existing policy, the new policy file will be moved to the Software AG_directory \IntegrationServer\instances\instance_name\config\wss\policies\invalid directory.
Important:Integration Server sorts policies randomly. When duplicate policy IDs exist, it is not possible to determine which policy file Integration Server will move to the invalid directory. Software AG recommends that you ensure that the policy ID does not exist before assigning it to a policy.
