When you review or configure policy settings in a specific policy, you’ll notice two kinds of settings:
Built-in Settings - These policy settings are usually checkboxes or radio options. They assign the setting to a managed machine and that’s all you need to specify in the policy.
Data-Specific Settings - These policy settings specify a data object that exists elsewhere in the VSA. Either that data object is part of the standard content that was preloaded into the VSA, or it’s a data object that another VSA user created and is using with the policy.
For example, in the image below, a predefined System policy shows the "reboot" policy for a machine after patch updates have been applied. This is a built-in setting that does not require you to specify any other data object. The next topic discusses data-specific settings.
