Edit a policy

You can edit a policy to update its configuration, targeting, or description.

Use this task to update the settings or tag targets of an existing policy. Editing a policy does not change the policy priority. Changes do not take effect until you deploy the policy.

Before you begin

Make sure you have:

  • Write access to the policy type
  • Access to the service organization where the policy is created

To edit a policy:

  1. Go to Ecoverse > Configuration> Policies.
  2. On the Policies page, select the service organization.
  3. Locate the policy you want to change. From the Actions menu, select Edit. In the Settings panel, review each tab and update the settings as needed:
    • Details
      • Update the Name or Description.
    • Configuration
      • Update the rules for the policy.
    • Tags
      • Update tag assignments by moving tags between Available and Assigned.
  4. Locate the policy you want to change.
  5. From the Actions menu, select Edit.

  6. In the Settings pane, review each tab and update the settings as needed:

    • Details: Update the Name or Description.
    • Configuration: Update the policy rules.
    • Tags: Update tag assignments by moving tags between Available and Assigned.
  7. Select Save to apply your changes.

The policy is updated and returned to the Ready to deploy state.

What to do next

Deploy the policy to apply your changes to devices. For more information, see Deploy a policy.

  • Editing a policy does not deploy your changes automatically. Deploy the policy again to apply the updated configuration. Deploy the policy after you:
    • Add or update tags so that targeted devices receive the updated configuration.
    • Remove tags so that devices with those tags are no longer targeted by the policy.
