Defining Domain-based Policies

Using the Policy Administration utility, you can create additional domains and define or change the rules set for each domain. For example, you can define the following:

• An access control policy, which determines a participant's permissions to access objects associated with the domain.

• An indexing policy, which determines the collections into which metadata for an object is entered when the object is in a specific life cycle state.

• A notification policy, which determines who is informed when an event of interest occurs to an object in the domain.

Load files can include sets of domain-based policies for access control and indexing. Templates that are used to create contexts can only include sets of domain-based policies for access control.

Policy rules apply to object types. Access to an instance of an object type can be governed by ad hoc access control rules in addition to policy rules.
