deployed to.  
Delete a policy

 Delete. 
As a result, the policy will be revoked from the machines it was deployed to and 
deleted from the management server. If the machine is currently offline, the policy 
will be revoked when the machine comes online again.

management server with the most recent information. Though the list of policies is 
refreshed automatically based on events, the data may not be retrieved 
immediately from the management server due to some latency. Manual refresh 
guarantees that the most recent data is displayed.
