4.2 Removing Policy Assignments From Devices

When a policy is assigned to a device or device folder, the assignment is reflected as a relationship in the policy’s properties and in the device or device folder properties. You can edit the relationships for either the policy or the object to remove the assignment.

The following sections provide instructions for two common assignment removal scenarios.

4.2.1 Removing Policy Assignments From a Single Object

The following instructions explain how to remove policy assignments from a device or device folder.

  1. In ZENworks Control Center, click the device or device folder from which you want to remove policy assignments.

    For device folders, you need to click Details next to the folder name rather than click the name.

  2. Click Relationships.

  3. In the Assigned Policies panel, click the Direct tab to ensure that it is active.

    The Direct tab displays all policies that are assigned directly to the object. Direct assignments are the only assignments you can remove for the object.

  4. Select the check box next to the assignments you want to remove, then click Remove.

4.2.2 Removing a Policy Assignment From Multiple Objects

The following instructions explain how to remove a single policy assignment from multiple devices or device folders at the same time.

  1. In ZENworks Control Center, click the Policies tab.

  2. In the Policies list, click the policy for which you want to remove assignments.

  3. Click Relationships.

  4. In the Device Assignments panel, select the check boxes next to the devices and device folders that you no longer want the policy assigned to, then click Remove.
