4.15 Managing Gold Universal Policy

Using Universal Policy Administrator, you can create a Gold Universal Policy that serves as a template for other universal policies.

The Gold Universal Policy serves as the primary universal policy, containing a comprehensive set of configurations. Once a universal policy is replicated from the Gold Universal Policy, it automatically inherits all settings from the Gold Universal Policy, ensuring consistent configurations across multiple universal policies.

To Include Universal Policy Settings from Gold Universal Policy from the web console:

  1. Log in to the Web Console as an Administrator.

  2. Navigate to the Universal Policies tab.

  3. Select a Universal Policy that you want to be the Gold Universal Policy.

  4. On the policy tab, navigate to the Details menu.

  5. Click Synchronization.

  6. In the Synchronization tab, click Include.

  7. Select the universal policy to inherit the settings of the Gold Universal Policy.

  8. Click Include.

  9. Click Save, to keep your changes.

  10. In the Synchronization tab, select the universal policy and click Synchronize > Synchronize.

  11. You can view the synchronized policies of the Gold Universal Policy in the synchronization tab.

    NOTE:

    • The Gold Universal Policy must be checked out to perform Synchronization.

    • If the policy settings of the Gold Universal Policy is modified and synchronization is not processed for the inherited universal policies, the status of the inherited universal policies will be ‘not synced’.

    • The policy settings of a universal policy is overwritten by the policy settings of the Gold Universal Policy when it is synchronized with the Gold Universal Policy.

    • The target UP will not show as out of sync until the status check job runs again. The job runs once a day, or you can set the ‘UPGPOSyncCheckIntervalMinutes’ app setting in the configuration to shorten the time.

To Exclude Universal Policy Settings from Gold Universal Policy from the web console:

  1. Log in to the Web Console as an Administrator.

  2. Navigate to the Universal Policies tab.

  3. Select the Gold Universal Policy.

  4. On the policy tab, navigate to the Details menu.

  5. Click Synchronization.

  6. In the Synchronization tab, select the universal policy that needs to be excluded from the Gold Universal Policy.

  7. Click Exclude.

  8. Click Save, to keep your changes.
