General Policy Group (CAF)
The General policy group specifies a number of miscellaneous CAF properties. You can modify policy parameter values by double-clicking a policy to display the Setting Properties dialog.
Specifies the script to run when CAF detects a network IP address change.
Default: empty
Allows an administrator to control remote access to CAF through its command line. Valid values are as follows:
Disallows remote access.
Disallows the following administrator commands: start, stop, and kill a plug-in.
Allows full access.
Note: When CAF is locked down, it will refuse CLI commands issued from a remote computer. It will always accept commands typed on the local computer. When a command is refused, an explanatory message is returned to the user.
Default: 2
Indicates the time in seconds after which CAF decides that a process has to be ended. This policy is used when CAF sends a message to a worker process along the connecting pipe and that worker has stopped for some reason, potentially causing CAF to stop also. This occurs with the stop and full status commands. A value of 0 disables this feature.
Default: 60
Specifies the custom reboot program to use instead of the operating system API. This policy is typically used for specialized hardware that requires customized actions to be performed before the reboot takes place. To revert to the OS reboot API, clear the Reboot cmd value.
Default: empty
Example: "myshutdown -r -t 5"
Indicates the CLI command to execute when CAF shuts down. This command or script is executed after all plug-ins except messaging and configuration have stopped.
Default: empty
Indicates the CLI command to execute when CAF starts up. This command or script is executed after messaging and configuration have started but before any other plug-ins.
Default: empty
Specifies the path name of a bitmap file that is used to customize the reboot/logoff countdown dialog. The bitmap must be 500 x 65 pixels in size.
Default: empty
Specifies whether a reboot/logoff countdown dialog is displayed. If this policy is set to True, the countdown dialog is displayed, letting the user do one of the following:
Depending on which buttons are enabled, focus is initially set in order of preference to Defer (or Postpone), Cancel, and then Reboot Now or Logoff Now. When the Defer button is clicked, it becomes disabled if the maximum number of deferrals has been reached, and focus is then set to Cancel, or if this button is also disabled, to Reboot Now or Logoff Now.
Note: All three buttons have accelerators, or "hot keys," in Windows and Linux. The current English hot keys are: <alt>+c for Cancel, <alt>+d for Defer, and <alt>+n for Reboot Now/Logoff Now.
If set to False, CAF reboots immediately and no countdown takes place. A value of False is useful on specialized hardware that may not allow user interaction with a dialog.
Default: True
If a reboot or logoff is ordered by Software Delivery, Remote Control, or some other application or component, displays a reboot/logoff dialog that provides a countdown and a Postpone button, permitting the user to defer the operation for short time. If this policy is set to True, the dialog is hidden when the Postpone button is clicked.
Default: False
If the CAF Dialog: Hide on defer policy is enabled, specifies the number of seconds before the reboot or logoff operation begins, at which time the reboot/logoff countdown dialog reappears.
Default: 60
