  3. Enter DEPLOY on the COMMAND field and press ENTER. The Ruleset(s) Deployment (1 of 3) dialog is displayed.

    ---------------------- Ruleset(s) Deployment (1 of 3) ------------------------
    COMMAND ===>                                              SCROLL ===> PAGE
                                                                              
                                                                              
      Replace Ruleset(s).: YES  (Applies to all selected rulesets)             
                                                                              
     Note: 'Replace' refers to replacement in the registry only. Use the       
     'Activate' option to install the ruleset in the running target PAS        
     and to Enable it.                                                         
                                                                              
      Activate Ruleset(s): YES  (Applies to all selected rulesets)             
                                                                              
     Note: 'Activate' is only effective when the ruleset is already a member   
     of the PAS Definition in use by the target PAS. If the ruleset is         
     not, then 'Activate=YES' will return an error for the ruleset.
