Working with Tasks › Task Management Policies › Execute a Policy

Execute a Policy

You can execute policies manually or with a scheduler. You can execute any policy manually, regardless if you have enabled scheduling.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Tasks tab and then click the Manage History subtab.

   The Manage History subtab opens showing cards for any policies that have been previously created.

2. Find the policy that you want to execute, click the Actions drop-down list to the right of the policy, and select Run.

   A dialog that shows the progress of the task opens. When the task completes, you can click Show Results on the Progress tab to close this dialog. The task output browser opens and you can view the action details. Click Close to close the task output browser.

   Note: While a task is in progress, you can perform other work. You can click Hide to exit the dialog and view the task status later on the Tasks tab.

   The policy is executed.
