Setting Up Policy Packages

You can set up policy packages in the following ways:


Creating and Associating a Policy Package

  1. In NetWare® Administrator, select the container (Country, Organization or Organizational Unit) where you want to store this ZENworksTM policy package.

  2. Right-click the container > click Create > Policy Packages > OK.

    The Policy Package Wizard is launched. With the Policy Package Wizard you can

    • Create policy packages
    • Enable policies
    • Modify enabled policies
    • Associate policy packages to objects in the tree

  3. Create and associate one of the seven policy packages by following the wizard's prompts.


Associating a Policy Package with an Object

  1. In NetWare Administrator, select an existing policy package.

  2. Click Object > Details > Associations.

    Examples are User, Group, Workstation, Workstation Group, or Container objects.

  3. Click Add > select the object you want to associate with the policy package.

    If you associate a policy package to a Group, Workstation Group, or Container object, the policies enabled in the policy package will be effective policies for the objects in those Group or Container objects (assuming there isn't an effective policy for the object lower in the tree).


Associating an Object with a Policy Package

  1. In NetWare Administrator, select the User, Group, Workstation, Workstation Group, or Container object whose associations need updating.

  2. Click Object > Details > Associated Policy Packages.

  3. Click Add.

  4. Browse and select the appropriate policy package.

  5. Click OK.

You can only have one of each policy package type associated with one container, User, Group, Workstation, or Workstation Group. For example, you can only have one Win95-98 Workstation Package associated with any one Container object, but you can have a WinNT Workstation Package associated with the same Container object. In other words, since there are seven types of policy packages, one Container object can have up to seven policy packages, and no policy package can be associated with more than one Container object.
