management server tracks and displays personal statuses for each machine that it works with, as well
as the policy's cumulative status.
2.13.4.1. A policy on a machine or a group
In the diagrams below, each numbered scheme illustrates the result of the respectively numbered
action.
The container stands for a group; the colored circle stands for a machine with applied policy; the dark
colored circle stands for a machine with two applications of the same policy; the white circle stands
for a machine to which no policy is applied.
Policy on a machine
1. A policy can be applied to a machine.
2. A policy can be revoked from a machine.
Policy on a group
1. A policy can be applied to a group.
2. A policy can be revoked from a group.
3. A policy applied to a group cannot be revoked from a machine.
4. To revoke the policy from the machine, remove the machine from the group.
The same policy on a group and on a machine
1. The same policy can be applied to a group and to a machine. Nothing changes on the machine at
the second application of the same policy, but the server remembers that the policy has been
applied twice.
2. A policy, revoked from the group, remains on the machine.
3. A policy, revoked from the machine, remains on the group and therefore on the machine.
