Delete a Policy

You can delete a policy from CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management when the policy is no longer assigned to a host or host group.

Important! When you delete a policy (GPOLICY object), CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management deletes all its policy versions (POLICY objects) and the RULESET object that is associated with each policy version.

Follow these steps:

1. In CA ControlMinder Enterprise Management, click Policy Management, Policy, Policy, Delete Policy.

   The Delete Policy: Policy Search screen appears.

2. Define a scope for the search, and click Search.

   A list of policies, which match the scope of the search you defined, appears.

3. Select the policy that you want to delete, and click Select.

   A message appears asking if you want to delete the policy.

4. Click Yes.

   The policy is deleted.

Note: You can also use the policydeploy utility to perform this task. For more information about the policydeploy utility, see the Reference Guide.
