How to Edit Policies

Operations Connector enables multiple users to connect to the same server at the same time. However, only one user at a time can edit a policy to prevent changes from other users overwriting each other.

When you edit a policy, Operations Connector locks the policy for you so that only you can save the policy. Note that if you open a policy more than once, only the first editor instance receives the lock and can save the policy.

Locked policies display with a lock icon and the name of the editing user in the list of policies in the Operations Connector user interface. (The tooltip explains who locked the policy and when.)

Operations Connector releases the lock when the policy is closed or when a user forcefully breaks the lock. It is recommended that you only break the edit lock when you have reason to believe that the locked policy editor was abandoned or stopped working. Policy editors that have been forcefully unlocked by another user change to read-only mode and you can no longer save any changes made.

When you open a locked policy for viewing, reload the policy from time to time to ensure that you are viewing the most recently saved version.

To edit unlocked policies:

In the list of policies in the Operations Connector user interface, select the policy that you want to edit.
Click in the toolbar. The policy editor opens. The policy is marked with the lock icon and the name of the editing user in the list of policies in the Operations Connector user interface.
Modify the policy.
Click Save and Close to save the policy and close the editor.

Alternatively, right-click the policy that you want to edit and click Edit in the context menu. Modify the policy and click OK to save your changes.

To break the edit lock on locked policies:

In the list of policies in the Operations Connector user interface, select the locked policy that you want to edit.
Click in the toolbar. A dialog box opens and lists the name of the editing user, the hostname of the Operations Connector server, and the date and time the policy was locked.

The date and time displays using the current time zone of the computer on which the Operations Connector user interface runs. The language setting of the Web browser determines the date and time format (for example, 09/14/2010 8:16:38 AM for English (United States)). If the Web browser and the computer on which the Operations Connector server run have different language settings, the language setting of the Web browser takes precedence. However, English is the default language if the Web browser is configured to use a language that is not available on the server.
Click OK to break the edit lock. The lock icon and the name of the editing user disappear from the list of policies in the Operations Connector user interface..
Open the policy for editing and modify it.
Click Save and Close to save the policy and close the editor.

Alternatively, right-click the locked policy that you want to edit and click Unlock in the context menu. Modify the policy and click OK to save your changes.

You can unlock a policy at any time, even while editing.
