Run-Time Policy Scope
 
Refining the Run-Time Policy's Scope with Additional Selection Criteria
The scope of a run-time policy specifies for which virtual services the policy will be enforced. The scope of a run-time policy is determined by the following policy parameters:
*The Target Type parameter specifies the type of PEP on which the policy will be enforced. When you create run-time policies for webMethods Mediator, you set the Target Type to webMethods Integration Server.
*The Organization parameter specifies to which organization's virtual services the policy applies. Like design-time policies, a run-time policy can be system-wide or organization-specific. System-wide policies apply to virtual services in any organization. Organization-specific policies apply only to virtual services that belong to a specified organization.
Note:  
Once you create a policy, its organizational scope is fixed and cannot be changed. That is, if you create a policy whose scope is specific to organization ABC, you cannot change its scope to make it system-wide or switch it to another organization. You must create a new policy and set its organizational scope as needed.
*The Asset Type parameter specifies to which types of assets the policy applies. When you create run-time policies for webMethods Mediator, you set the Asset Type parameter to Virtual Services. When you are creating a run-time policy for another type of PEP, you will set this parameter to Web Services.
