    3. Your Operations Connector is set up as a connected server in OMi.

  2. In the Operations Connector user interface, click Create in the toolbar. Then click Topology > REST Web service listener REST Web Service Listener.

    Alternatively, double-click an existing policy to edit it.

  3. In the Properties page, define information that is related to the policy itself (for example, the name and description of the policy).
