Policy Service

Note: this component stores cluster-wide configuration data and is mirrored across all servers in the topology within the the same cluster.

Note: changes to cluster-wide configuration objects are immediately and automatically mirrored across all servers within the same cluster, so offline changes are not supported.

Policy Service contains the properties that affect the overall operation of the Data Governance Server policy service.

Basic Properties

combining-algorithm

Description
The policy combining algorithm for the Policy Decision Point.
Default Value
deny-overrides
Allowed Values
deny-overrides - This combining algorithm is intended for those cases where a deny decision should have priority over a permit decision.

permit-overrides - This combining algorithm is intended for those cases where a permit decision should have priority over a deny decision.

deny-unless-permit - This combining algorithm is intended for those cases where a permit decision should have priority over a deny decision, and an "Indeterminate" or "NotApplicable" must never be the result. It is particularly useful at the top level in a policy structure to ensure that a PDP will always return a definite "Permit" or "Deny" result.

permit-unless-deny - This combining algorithm is intended for those cases where a deny decision should have priority over a permit decision, and an "Indeterminate" or "NotApplicable" must never be the result. It is particularly useful at the top level in a policy structure to ensure that a PDP will always return a definite "Permit" or "Deny" result.
