Policy & Objects : Managing policy packages : Lock an ADOM/Policy Package
 
Lock an ADOM/Policy Package
If workspace is enabled, you must lock an ADOM/Policy Package prior to performing any management tasks on it. For information more information, see “Concurrent ADOM access”.
To lock an ADOM:
1. Select the specific ADOM on which you will be making changes from the drop-down list in the toolbar, or select Global.
2. Select the lock icon next to the drop-down list to lock the selected ADOM.
The ADOM will now be locked, allowing you to make changes to it, and preventing other administrators from making any changes, unless lock override is enabled (see “Extend workspace to entire ADOM”).
To lock a policy package:
1. Select the specific ADOM on which you will be making changes from the drop-down list in the toolbar, or select Global.
2. Select the policy package, right-click, and select Lock & Edit from the menu.
The policy package will now be locked, allowing you to make changes to it, and preventing other administrators from making any changes, unless lock override is enabled (see “Extend workspace to entire ADOM”).
 
When the policy package is locked, other users are unable to lock the ADOM. The policy package can be edited in a private workspace. Only the policy package is in the workspace, not the object database. When locking and editing a policy package, the object database remains locked. The policy package lock status is displayed in the toolbar.
