How to restore inactive polices rules?

[okonek 0]

Hi

I've police that block USB memory stick in computers. I've created police that only specific USB memory can by enable on computers. Ive done it by adding USB data (like serial number, vendor ect) in police rules. It works great but accidentally I disable this rules and it automatically delete all information in it. Is there any chance to restore it? or I need to add it one more time manually?

Unfortunately it is not clear what you mean by "disabling rules".

What I did:
1, Created a policy with a Device control rule and clicked OK.
2, Edited the policy and disabled the rule by unchecking "Enabled" and saved it.
3, Edited the policy and the rule was still there but was disabled.

Hi Marcos,

Thank you for fast replay. In my installation it works different. when I create policy and add some rules in it. Then disable the rules it automatically delete all entry. Please check the screenshoot:

I see but you are warned about this:

If you want just to disable some of the rules, you must do it in the rule editor, not by unselecting the Rules setting.

Marcos,

 

I know it but is there any way to restore it?

I assume it would be possible to restore it only if you have a db backup.

Ok, thank you for your time.

Alternative might be to use conversion of exported configuration to policy, but it would require some client's configuration to be actually requested by console (and still present there) from time when settings were applied.

I already restore it from backup. Thank you for your time.
