Modifying Provisioning Policies

You can create an infrastructure policy that generates an event, sends an e-mail, or runs a custom command when successful provisioning occurred.

If you plan to use e-mail notification with your policy, first assign an SMTP server from which the management server can send its e-mail notifications. See ”Setting Up E-mail Notification” on page 178.

To modify a policy for provisioning:

1.Access Policy Manager as described in the topic, ”Accessing Policy Manager” on page 372.

2.In the Policy Manager tree in the middle pane, expand the node, Infrastructure Policies, and then click Provisioning.

3.Click the Edit () button corresponding to the policy you want to modify.

4.In the Name box, change the name for the policy.
