If a desktop or user interface session is in progress on a managed device with GConf-based policies
assigned to it, and an updated policy is enforced on that device by a console login or an
su
command, all updated settings may not be immediately applicable on the desktop session. The
updated settings are reflected only when the user logs in via the user interface session again.
In the Novell Linux Desktop policy, some of the configuration settings are file-permission-based,
and hence for a
root
user, these settings such as items in the Program menu and System menu will
be accessible even if it is locked.
For the Remote Execute and Text File policies, the enforcement occurs according to the schedule. To
verify the enforcement, check the managed device to ensure that the specified changes or actions
have taken place.
You can also verify the enforcement status or check for errors by looking at the zmd log on the
managed device (
/var/opt/novell/log/zenworks/zmd-messages.log
for all managed devices
except SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (SLES 10) and SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10 (SLED
10) devices. The path for SLES 10 and SLED 10 devices is
/var/log/zmd-messages.log
).
17.11 Renaming, Copying, or Moving Policies
Use the Edit drop-down list on the Policies page to edit an existing object. To access the Edit drop-
down list, you must select an object by clicking the check box next to the object's name in the list.
Depending on the type of object you select, you can rename, copy, or move the object. For example,
if you select a Policy object, you can rename, copy, and move the policy. If you select a Policy
Group object, you can rename or move the Policy Group object, but not copy it. If the option is
dimmed, that option is not available for the selected object type.
Some actions cannot be performed on multiple objects. For example, if more than one check box is
selected, the
Rename option is not available from the Edit menu.
1 In the ZENworks Control Center, click the Policies tab.
2 In the Policies list, select the box next to the policy's name, click Edit , then click an option.
Š Rename: Click Rename , type a new name for the policy, then click OK .
Š
Copy: Click Copy , type a new name for the copy, then click OK .
The copy option is useful to create a new policy that is similar to an existing policy. You
can copy a policy and then edit the new policy's settings.
