Title
Processing configuration policies in an organization -
Description
In many organizations, a structure of organizational units will be built, and configuration policies in Nova Delegation & Policy Control can be used across this structure. -
Resolution
We’ll use a simple organizational unit structure as a baseline:
- If we create a new policy and apply it to the Main-OU organizational unit we have the option to ‘apply to child OUs’. If we select that option, when the policy is applied at the top level, any child OUs will also be affected by the policy.
- OU1, and OU2, will also use the same policy that was applied at the Main-OU level. If we then create a policy and apply it to OU2, we can override any of the impact from the other policy.
- Main-OU and OU1 will use the original policy, and OU2 will use the new policy.
