Setting Remediation Exceptions

Scenarios

You can add a non-compliant resource to the exception list, and then this resource will be skipped during remediation.

You can add exceptions in either of the following ways:

  • Automatic: If a non-compliant resource is remediated more times than the threshold you specified in the remediation rule, the resource will be automatically added to the exception list. There is no limit to the number of resources that can be added in this way.
  • Manual: You can add non-compliant resources to the exception list in batches at any time. You can add a maximum of 100 exception resources for a single compliance rule.

You can remove non-compliant resources from the exception list at any time.

The detailed procedures are as follows:
