Defined for resource

This read-only field shows the scope at which the selected policy has been defined. If no policy has been selected this field is blank.

The three possible scopes are:

  1. All sysplexes (global)
  2. Sysplex
  3. System

If you have displayed the "Policies" panel for the system scope and this field shows "Sysplex" or "All sysplexes", this policy has not been set for the system scope.

If you have displayed the "Policies" panel for the sysplex scope and this field shows "All sysplexes", this policy has not been set for the sysplex scope.

A policy at system level overrides the same policy at sysplex and global levels. A policy at sysplex level overrides the same policy at global level.

A policy at system level always applies to the active system profile. The same policy is set separately for a different system profile of the same system.
