Creating a User Policy

Creating a User Policy

The task of actually creating a MetaFrame user policy is straightforward. You simply right-click the Policies object in the Management Console or press Alt+P, select Create Policy from the context menu, and then provide a name for the new policy in the dialog box that appears. The new policy is then added to the list in the right pane of the Management Console. Opening the properties for the new policy displays the different rules discussed in the preceding section. After you set the desired rules, you can assign the appropriate filters, which were described in the "Policy Filtering and Assignment" section earlier in this chapter. Although there is no published limit on the number of policies that can be created, from both an administration and a performance standpoint, it is wise to limit the number of policies as much as possible. Do not create new policies simply for the sake of doing so. Group rules within the same policy as much as possible.
