Abstract
A policy handling system creates multiple policies and associates each of the multiple policies with at least one target node in an enterprise. The system then applies each of the multiple policies to the appropriate target node. The multiple policies can be event-handling policies. Each policy can be associated with a group of target nodes in which the group of target nodes share a common relationship. Domain controllers receive the multiple policies and apply the policies to the appropriate target nodes. A meta-policy is used to control the application of the multiple policies to the proper target nodes.
