Hi Daniel,

No, PolicyRule is not an abstract class in CIM / PCIM, although 
PolicyCondition and PolicyAction are.  The idea is that PolicyRule is 
basically just a "hub" that ties together some conditions, some actions, 
some time period conditions, some roles, etc.  It's usable as it is "in 
production", for expressing real policies.

PolicyCondition and PolicyAction, on the other hand, must in general be 
subclassed, since by themselves they are content-free.

Regards,
Bob

[Policy] No specific policy rule type in QPIM






Hi,

I've noticed that QPIM does not define a specific type for a policy rule.
But, since PolicyRule in CIM is abstract, shouldn't there be a
"QoSPolicyRule"-like class in QPIM?

Regards,
