摘要
A system and method for implementing a hierarchical policy for computer system (10) administration which is extremely flexible in assigning policies to managed objects (32), is disclosed. Policies (22) are defined to be rules for the values of the attributes of managed objects is disclosed. Policy groups comprise the basic building blocks and they associate a set of policies with a set of managed objects. Policy groups can also be members of other policy groups and a policy group inherits the policies of its parent policy groups supporting the hierarchical specification of policy. A given policy group may have multiple parents which allows the "mix-in" of policies from the parents. Cloning and templates in conjunction with validation policies and policy groups provide standardization and a concomitant reduction in system administration complexity. IMAGE
