Work with policies for composite applications

Use Resource Policies to create and manage policies for composite applications. Policies provide an efficient way for administrators and application managers to monitor and manage application lifecycle.

From the product banner, click Administration -> Access -> Resource Policies to create and manage policies for composite applications. Starting with the main policy for composite applications, you can create child policies for subsets of applications. When assigned to particular applications, these specialized policies monitor application size and activity according to the policy settings that you specify. Policies are assigned to applications by the value of the Policy Selection Attribute. The value of the Policy Selection Attribute is the name of the condition evaluated and applied by the policy rule for the application. The Policy Selection Attribute is an application parameter. Therefore, its value is set and stored in the application template and is available for editing as an application component in particular applications. You receive notification when conditions in applications reach warning or violation status. From the applications catalog, you can view general or detailed status for each application. Depending on current conditions of an application, you can decide to assign a different policy, edit the policy settings, or perform a maintenance action on the application: backup, archive, restore, or delete.

Review the task previews and the example for creating policies for composite applications and managing application status. When you perform these tasks using the portlets for Resource Policies, Personalization, and Applications, remember to refer to the Help topics and complementary sections of this information center. If the settings Inactivity violation action or No-modify violation action are set to a value of Archive the application, this has implications on mashup spaces. For details refer to the topic about Mashup spaces.
