Safeguard Authentication Services 4.1.5 - Management Console for Unix Administration Guide

You can also click the (close) icon in the upper-right of the policy panel to close the policy. If you have made changes, you are prompted to save them.

The policy is saved as a new version; not as the version number that you opened.

Note: If the file contains unresolved syntax errors when you click Save, the editor gives you an option to Save with Errors. One Identity recommends that you correct errors before saving to ensure that the policy server does not reject all commands.

The Errors pane is located across the bottom of the Edit Policy view and provides feedback on any errors encountered when you click the Error Check button. While in the text editor, error checking only checks for syntax errors; when in the GUI editor, error checking also checks that the policy is correctly configured to use profile-based (or role based) policy. Double-clicking an error message takes you to the line in question.

Enter a comment describing the changes and click OK to save the latest revision of the policy.
The new version of the policy becomes the latest version in use by Privilege Manager.

Open the Export drop-down menu and select the format you want to use for the report: PDF or CSV.
