Creating a Policy Group

Prerequisite

The premium edition has been enabled.

So far, you can create a policy group only in the premium edition. If the premium edition is not enabled for a server, the policy group you create for it will not take effect.

Creating a Policy Group

The following uses a Linux server policy in the premium edition as an example:

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner of the page, select a region, and choose Security > Host Security Service.
3. In the navigation tree on the left, choose Security Operations > Policies to check the displayed policy groups. For more information, see Table 1.
   

   • tenant_linux_container_default_policy_group: preset Linux policy of the container edition. You can copy this policy group and create a new one based on it. tenant_linux_enterprise_default_policy_group is the default Linux policy of the enterprise edition. This policy group can only be viewed, and cannot be copied or deleted.
   • tenant_windows_enterprise_default_policy_group: preset Windows policy of the enterprise edition. This policy group can only be viewed, and cannot be copied or deleted.
   • tenant_linux_premium_default_policy_group: preset Linux policy of the premium edition. You can create a policy group by copying this default group and modify the copy.
   • tenant_windows_premium_default_policy_group: preset Windows policy of the premium edition. You can create a policy group by copying this default group and modify the copy.
   • To refresh the list, click in the upper right corner.
   • To view details about the servers associated with a policy group, click the number in the Servers column of the group.
