How to Duplicate a Policy

This procedure explains how to use all or some of the attributes of an existing policy to create a new policy. There is no command-line equivalent for this procedure.

1. If neccessary, start the SEAM Tool.

   See "How to Start the SEAM Tool" for details.

2. Click the Policies tab.

3. Select the policy in the list that you want to duplicate and click Duplicate.

   The Policy Details panel is displayed. All the attributes of the selected policy are duplicated except for the Policy Name field, which is empty.

4. Specify a name for the duplicated policy in the Policy Name field.

   The policy name is mandatory. If you want to make an exact duplicate of the policy you selected, click Save and skip to the last step.

5. Specify different values for the policy's attributes.

   Choose Context-Sensitive Help from the Help menu to get information about the various attributes in each window. Or, go to Table 5-7 for all the policy attribute descriptions.

6. Click Save to save the policy, or click Done.
