policydeploy Utility—Manage Enterprise Policy Deployment

The policydeploy utility manages multiple-rule policies (advanced policy management). The utility lets you store policy versions on DMS nodes, assign policies to hosts and host groups, and unassign these policies. You can also directly deploy or undeploy a stored policy or upgrade deployed policies to the latest version.

The utility handles several tasks and has the following functions:
