Specifying the Scope of a Design/Change-Time Policy
Scope refers to the set of properties that determine when a policy is enforced. For a design/change-time policy, scope is determined by the policy's Object Types, Event Types and Organization properties, which are described below.
Property | Description |
Object Types | Note: | If the object that you select is a base type that has virtual types associated with it, and the Inherit Base Type Policies option is enabled for certain of its virtual types, be aware that the policy you create will be applied to instances of the base type and instances of those virtual types. For more information about how CentraSite applies policies to base types and virtual types, see Applying Policies to Virtual Types. For information about which predefined types in CentraSite have virtual types associated with them, see the CentraSite Administrator’s Guide . |
You can optionally restrict a policy to specific instances of the selected object types by specifying additional object-selection criteria. For procedures, see Refining the Object Scope. |
Event Types | The list of event types to which the policy applies. Important: | The OnCollect, OnMove and OnExport events are designed to execute handler and collector processes. Do not use these events unless you are creating a handler or collector policy. The improper use of these event types can damage the registry. For information about creating collector and handler policies, see Collector and Handler Policies. |
|
Organization | Important: | You cannot change the value of the Organization property if the policy is system-wide. |
