Unlike the configurations available on the Agents screen (which are one-time commands for triggering immediate actions), the policy management on the Policy page are for pattern deployment to the agents.

After users organize agents into various groups and build up multi-level hierarchy among the groups (parent groups above child groups), two types of policy management are available for choice:
  • Policy Inherited: The group policy is inherited from the parent group

  • Policy Customized: The group policy is customized for specific agents/groups by the StellarOne administrators

Note:

Self-managed: This special policy setting allows local agents to be free from StellarOne's policy management and instead, to be managed directly by the on-site operators. Though it's a policy setting, the Self-managed status will be shown under the Policy Inheritance column heading on the Agents screen.
