Create a Policy - Add Rules panel

This panel (the second step in the Create a Policy wizard) allows you to add rules to a newly-created policy. You can add any number of file-placement rules to the policy.

All date and time attributes in these rules are based in coordinated universal time (UTC). Therefore, any time and date entry is assumed to be in universal time. Also, functions (for example, "dayofweek") are based on UTC.

Fields

Rules Description
Action: Storage Pool Assignment
Conditions
New Rule pushbutton
Note:
  1. You can click Back to go back to previous steps, but you cannot go back to previous rules.
  2. You can advance to the next step (the rules editor), and bypass the Add Rules panel by clicking Next, regardless of whether or not any rules have been set. The rules editor allows you to perform alternate actions, such as pasting in a rule set.
