Managing Correlation Policies
License: 
Any
You manage correlation policies on the Policy Management page. You can create, modify, sort, activate, 
deactivate, and delete policies.
The slider next to the policy indicates whether the group is active. If you want the policy to generate 
correlation events and white list events, you must activate it. You can sort policies by state (active versus 
inactive) or alphabetically by name using the 
Sort by
 drop-down list.
If an active correlation policy contains a compliance white list, the following actions do not delete the 
host attribute associated with the white list, nor do they change that host attribute’s values:
  •
deactivating the policy
  •
modifying the policy to remove the white list
  •
deleting the policy 
That is, hosts that were compliant when you performed the action still appear as compliant on the host 
attributes network map, and so on. To delete the host attribute, you must delete its corresponding white 
list.
To update the white list compliance of the hosts on your network, you must either reactivate the 
correlation policy (if you deactivated it) or add the white list to another active correlation policy (if you 
deleted the white list from a correlation policy or deleted the policy itself). Note that the reevaluation of 
the white list that occurs when you do this does not generate white list events and therefore does not 
trigger any responses you associated with the white list. For more information on compliance white lists, 
see
