Lock an individual object
In Workspace mode, when you lock an ADOM, all objects in that ADOM are locked, and other administrators are prevented from modifying any objects within the ADOM.
You can alternatively lock individual objects so that others remain available for other administrators to modify. To lock an individual object, you must first lock a policy package or individual policy (if per-policy lock is enabled). Once the policy package or policy is locked, you can proceed to lock and modify individual objects in the ADOM.
When editing a policy package or policy, you do not need to lock an individual object before editing it, but doing so will prevent any potential conflicts that may occur if another administrator chooses to edit the same object at the same time.
To lock an individual object in Workspace mode:
-
Lock a Policy Package or individual Policy. See Locking a policy package and Lock an individual policy
-
Go to Policy & Objects and locate the object you want to modify.
-
Right-click on the object in the table, and select Lock.
The object is now locked. Other administrators will see a red lock icon next to the object indicating that it cannot be edited. -
Complete and save your changes to the object.
-
Right-click on the object in the table, and select Unlock.
