crsctl add policy

Use the crsctl add policy command to add a configuration policy to the policy set.

Syntax

crsctl add policy policy_name -attr "attr_name=attr_value[,attr_name=attr_value[, ...]]" [-i]

Parameters

Table E-27 crsctl add policy Command Parameters

Parameter Description 
policy_name

Specify a name for the policy you want to add.

 
attr_name

Specify a description for the policy using the DESCRIPTION policy attribute preceded by the -attr flag.

 
attr_value

A value for the DESCRIPTION policy attribute that describes the policy.

Note: The attr_name and attr_value parameters must be enclosed in double quotation marks ("") and separated by commas. For example:

-attr "DESCRIPTION=daytime"
 
-i

If you specify -i, then the command fails if Oracle Clusterware cannot process the request immediately.

Usage Notes

  • Adding a policy does not activate the policy

  • The policy_name parameter is required

  • Privileges necessary to run this command depend on the value of the ACL attribute of the policy set

Example

To add a policy:

$ crsctl add policy nightTime -attr "DESCRIPTION=nighttime"
