Can anyone advise what would happen if a policy name was changed? For example, if I needed to rename "10-Install Chrome" to "210-Install Chrome", would it remove the package that was installed by the first policy and reinstall the same package under the 2nd policy? And am I correct in assuming that removing a policy does NOT remove the installed app?

 

We're renaming them so that we can properly sequence the policies (e.g. anything with 0XX are pre-app installations, anything with 1XX are required app installations, anything with 2XX are for specific labs, etc).

@myu - Changing the Policy Display Name will the affect anything except the sequence will be changed when the policy is triggered next time. The previously deployment gets affected / package will be installed again only when you flush the policy logs. 

Hope this is helpful. Let me know if you have any question. Thank you. 

Renaming any object of a policy, will not effect any other object of the policy. You can change the policy name to your hearts content and it wont effect the payloads. To the same effect you can rename a package, and it will just reflect the new package name in the police. 

Thank you!

 



When renaming policies, it generally won’t automatically uninstall the application installed by the original policy, but behavior can vary depending on the management system you’re using. To track any potential issues or verify status changes, you might find it useful to consult resources like a reliable Kentucky arrest information county site for detailed records and updates. This kind of database often provides insights into how changes in records or statuses are handled, which could help draw parallels for managing your policy sequencing effectively.
