I think my question should be more bettrt presented as follows: I know how to activate or reactivate the base service policy or an override service policy. How can other definitions in the service definition such as classification rules be activated ?
Does service policy activation use the policy in the currently active service definition or that in the currently installed service definition ?. Does installation of a service definition do anything other than update the couple dataset ? . When a service policy is dynamically activated, and assuming that the system uses policies from the currently installed service definition, are the other definitions in the service definition (such as classification rules) also activated ? My 10+ years old service definition uses the same name for the service definition as for the override policy that we use - I was probably confused then and am confused now.
