the Application Services library.
Prerequisites
n
Log in to Application Services as an application cloud administrator and an application publisher
and deployer.
n
Verify that the policy does not have existing policy instances in the deployment environment. See
Create a vCloud Director Deployment Environment, Create a vRealize Automation Deployment
Environment, or Create an Amazon EC2 Deployment Environment.
Procedure

2 Open the existing policy.
3 Remove the existing policy version and confirm your selection.
4 Click the arrow next to the policy name to return to the Policies page.
5 Delete the policy and confirm your selection.
Add a Custom Task to the Library
With Application Services, you can create a custom task to perform customized tasks in the application
deployment such as run security patches.
The Application Services catalog contains predefined tasks to configure APT or YUM repositories, a script
to register a machine to the Red Hat network, or a script to enable a virtual machine to connect to the
designated Windows Active Directory domain. You can add these customized tasks to the execution plan
in a deployment profile. In some cases, rather than creating a custom task, you might prefer to edit a
predefined task.
Save your changes frequently. The Application Services user interface session expires after 30 minutes of
inactivity. If the session expires, any changes that were not saved are lost.
