HP 3PAR Policy Server 4-8
Setting All Permissions
You can change the access right for all displayed permissions to a specific access right. For example, you
temporarily want to prevent all actions for an asset; you navigate to the Policy page for the asset group
(whose name is that of the asset), and set all permissions to Never Allow. When you want to restore the
policy settings to their original settings, you do so by clearing the Set All Permissions check box.
In addition, the Set All Permissions feature allows you to reset all permissions to those of the parent asset
group.
To set all permissions to the same access right:
1. Select the Policies tab.
2. In the Actions Panel, click the name of the asset group whose policy you want to edit. The Policies
for the group table updates for the selected asset group.
3. Below the Policies for the group table, select the check box next to Set All Permissions. When
prompted if you want to set all permissions, select Ok.
4. Select the access right to set for all policy permissions: Always Allow, Ask for Approval, or
Never Allow. If this is not the Global policy, you can also click the Reset to Parent's Policy button
to set all access rights to those defined in the parent policy (either Global or a model).
5. Optionally, select the Assign Filters link to display the Assign filters to Permission page:
a. In the Policy Filters table, select the Add check box for each filter you want to assign.
b. Click Save.
6. Optionally, select the Remove Filters link to display the Select Filters to Remove page:
a. In the Policy Filters table, select the Remove check box for each filter you want to remove.
b. Click Remove.
7. At the bottom of the Policy page, click Done.
If you selected an Access Right, that Access Right appears in the Access Right column and cannot be
changed. For example, if you selected Never Allow, the Access Right column displays Never Allow for
every permission. In addition, the Inheritance column displays the name of this asset group.
If you selected Reset to Parent's Policy instead of an Access Right, the name of the parent asset group
appears in the Inheritance column and the Access Right column displays "Reset to Parent." You cannot
change this "access right". You must first restore the original policy settings.
