Start a Policy Scan
You can start a policy scan on a deployment to evaluate all of the policy instances defined under the
deployment environment that corresponds to a deployment. Application Services runs a policy
assessment as the first step when you initiate a deployment or update process.
Policy scans can be performed only on active deployments. For example, if an update process fails, you
must restore the state of the current deployment to active before retrying the policy scan.
If a policy used in the deployment environment for a policy instance is updated, the user must delete the
existing policy instance and create a policy instance based on the updated policy.
Prerequisites
n
Log in to Application Services as an application publisher and deployer.
