Creating a Category

After you create a policy, it should be categorized. Categorization allows you to group policies into administrative or logical units and then allow database objects to subscribe to specific categories. It is worth mentioning that server objects can’t subscribe to policies.

To create a category, click on the Description page in the Create New Policy dialog or the Policy properties dialog. Policies can be placed in the default category or a specific category, or you can create a new category. The dialog to specify or create a new category is illustrated in Figure 14.5.
