Configuring Policy Action Parameters
Pre-requisites:
You can configure the input parameters for a design/change-time policy action by using the Design/Change-Time Policy Details page in CentraSite Control.
To configure the action parameters for a design/change-time policy in CentraSite, you must have one of the following permissions:
To configure the action parameters for 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 export that policy unless you have permission to manage design/change-time policies for organization ABC.
To configure the action parameters for 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 action parameters 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.
Most policy actions have input parameters that you must set to configure the action's enforcement behavior.
When you display the Actions tab on the Design/Change-Time Policy Details page, the icon in the Parameters Set column indicates whether the action has input parameters that need to be set.
This Icon... | Indicates that... |
| The action has required input parameters that have not yet been set. |
| All of the action's required input parameters have been set. Note: This icon automatically appears for actions that have no input parameters. |
To configure action parameters 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 actions you want to configure 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 configure the action parameters of an active policy.
4. On the Actions tab, do the following for each action in the list:
a. Click the action whose parameters you want to examine or set.
b. In the Edit Action Parameters page, set the parameters as necessary.
Note: Required parameters are marked with an asterisk.
c. Click Save to save the parameter settings.
5. Click Save.
6. When you are ready to put the policy into effect, activate the policy.
