Modifying a Policy Group

Scenarios

You can modify the policy configuration (including the default policy group), basic information, and policy objects in an existing policy group, or delete a policy group that is no longer used.

Modifying Basic Information

The basic information about the default policy group cannot be modified.

1. Log in to the Workspace Application Streaming console as an administrator.
2. In the navigation pane, click Policy Groups. The Policy Groups page is displayed.
3. Click Basic Info in the Operation column of the policy to be modified. The Basic Info page is displayed.
4. Modify the name, priority, and description as required.
   

   • The policy name can contain up to 55 characters in digits, letters, and underscores (_).
   • The priority value must be less than the total number of policy groups. The priority is a basis for determining an execution sequence or an action weight of a policy by Workspace Application Streaming. The priority is represented by a positive integer. A smaller value indicates a higher priority.
