The Safe Persisting Order screen
The Server Tools Safe Persisting Order screen provides information on the following:
- The order in which PolicyCenter writes object data to the database during a bundle commit.
- The order in which PolicyCenter runs the Preupdate rules on a set of objects.
The screen contains a table with columns that show the following:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Entity | Entity name |
| Order | Entity ranking order |
| Table | Entity database table name |
| Preupdate | Whether the entity triggers a Preupdate rule set |
To see only those objects affected by Preupdate rules, select With rules only from the drop-down filter.
Note: PolicyCenter does not use Preupdate rules.
Bundle commits to the database
PolicyCenter uses the defined object ordering in every bundle write to the database for insert, write, or delete operations. Thus, during a commit to the database of a bundle containing multiple objects, PolicyCenter writes the objects to the database in the order listed in the table Order column.
Preupdate rules
In running the rules in the Preupdate rule set, PolicyCenter first computes the set of objects on which to run the Preupdate rules. PolicyCenter then runs the Preupdate rules for this set of objects as determined by the order listed in the table Order column.
