Cloaking a GPO

Cloaking allows you to hide Group Policy Objects (GPOs) from other users. The Cloaking role is not a default role installed with the product, and must be created with the Cloak/Uncloak and View Cloaked rights. By default, Domain Administrators can see all cloaked GPOs.

When a GPO is cloaked using GPOADmin, it is also cloaked in the live environment. Only users with the Cloak/Uncloak or View Cloaked right can see the GPO in the live environment. A cloaked GPO will only be applied to users who have the Cloak/Uncloak or View Cloaked right during group policy processing. All other users will no longer have the GPO applied.

Cloaked GPOs are indicated by a lighter GPO icon.

Locking a GPO

Locking allows you to lock a policy so other users cannot edit it. The Locking role has to be created and consists of the Lock/Unlock right. For example, you may choose to lock the Default Domain Policy and/or Default Domain Controller Policy as any modification to these settings would affect every GPO in the organization.

When a GPO is locked using GPOADmin, it is also locked in the live environment. All users can see the GPO, but no one can edit it.

By default, Domain Administrators can see all locked GPOs and unlock any locked GPO. Locked GPOs are indicated by a lock icon.

Establishing Management for an Object

If you have the Modify Managed By right, you can set the user responsible for an object’s management.

1
Expand the Version Control Root node, and select an object.

Viewing history

You can easily create a report that displays the historical settings for objects in the Version Control system or a comparison of versions. When you view the history in the GPMC Extension, all events are shown. The GPOADmin console has a filter option that you can use to choose which events to display.

1
Expand the Version Control Root node, and the required container.
