You created an approval policy for virtual machine requests, but you still want to create an approval for the
MySQL component. Until you apply the policies to an entitlement, no approvals are triggered.
Scenario: Create a MySQL Software Component Approval Policy
As the tenant administrator, your software managers asked you to create and apply approval policies for
MySQL installations to track licensing usage. You create a policy to notify the software license manager
whenever the MySQL for Linux Virtual Machines Software component is requested.
In some environments you might need this type of approval because license keys must be provided by the
software manager. In this scenario, you only need the software manager to track and approve the request.
After you create the approval policy, you apply the policy to the MySQL for Linux Virtual Machines catalog
item. This approval policy is very specic and can only be applied to the MySQL for Linux Virtual Machines
Software component in the entitlements.
