Managing GPO revisions with lineage

If required, you can manage GPO revisions through lineage by selecting a specific GPO to revert to when a rollback is performed. When this is configured, every SOM linked to the GPO will be updated the lineage GPO.

* 
NOTE: Only users with the Set Lineage right can set the lineage.
To configure GPO lineage
1
Right-click the GPO that you want to manage and select Properties.
2
Select the Lineage tab and choose Enable Lineage.
3
Select the browse button and choose the GPO to revert to when a rollback is performed.
4
Click OK. Once this is set, a GPO rollback will unlink the GPO and re-link with the assigned lineage GPO.

Setting the change window for specific actions

If required, administrators can restrict specific actions during a specified day and time. For example, if a user checks out an object during the time period where changes are not permitted, all the management options will be unavailable.

* 
NOTE: Only users with the Modify Change Window right can set the change window time frame.
NOTE: Administrators with the Modify Change Window right can override this option and make changes outside the allowable change window.
NOTE: PowerShell commands are not available for this feature.
To set the change window for specific actions:
1
Right-click the object that you want to manage and select Properties.
2
Select the Change Window tab.
If you are an administrator with the appropriate right, the Override parent settings option is enabled so that you can set the change window.
3
Select the Time Setting tab to set time frames individually (or select and drag to highlight the required time frame) and choose Denied or Allowed as required. Allowed hours display in blue, and denied hours display in white.
Alternatively, you can:
•
Select to allow all, then deny specific days or a combination of days and hours.
•
Select to deny all, then allow specific days or a combination of days and hours.
4
Select the Actions List tab to select the actions to associate with this change window.
5
Click Apply to apply the settings and close the dialog.
Once set, users will not be able to modify objects outside of the allowed change window.
