Enabling or Disabling Governance Policies

RGC provides multiple types of governance policies. Mandatory governance policies are automatically applied to OUs created in RGC. You can use the management account to enable strongly recommended or elective governance policies as needed.

After you enable governance policies, RGC creates and manages resources in your management account. Do not modify or delete resources created by RGC. Otherwise, the governance policies may become ineffective.

Constraints

  • You can only manually enable or disable strongly recommended and elective governance policies.
  • Governance policies cannot be attached to the root OU or core OU.

  2. Choose Governance Policy Library > All Policies. In the policy list, locate the governance policy you want to enable.
