Creating and managing policies

Policies in BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management can help you control which available resources are used when a user-requested service instance is created in the cloud.

You manage policies through the Service Governor workspace. Policies are based on resource tags. For policy and tag overview information, see Policy-management-overview.

Before you begin

Each tenant must be mapped to a network container, as described in Mapping-tenants-to-network-containers.

Each compute resource pool must be mapped to the appropriate network containers, as described in Mapping-resource-pools-to-network-containers.

For examples describing how to use tagging and policies, see Tagging-recommendations-and-examples.

To create policies

  1. Create tag groups and tags, as described in Creating-tag-groups-and-tags.
  2. Tag objects in BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management, as described in Assigning-a-tag-to-an-object.
  3. Create policies based on tags, as described in Adding-and-editing-policies.
