Change Case Senitivity in ASM policy

Hi,

 

I have a fairly mature ASM (11.5.3 HF2) policy and decided I'd like to change the case sensitivity. It looks like that can only be set when a policy is created, but I do have an idea and wanted to run it past the collective wisdom to see if it might be feasible.

 

Can I export the policy and modify the XML? I found an attribute and so I thought I could change the value to "true" and them import it as a new policy. Has anyone tried this, or is there another way that I should consider?

 

I'm thankful for any input.

 

Cheers, Mike

    I should just try it then. I'm asking b/c I've seen other posts that warn you not to do it.

     

    Thanks, Mike

      Hi Nova,

      I know this is an old post, but did you ever tried you idea?

      I'm facing same issue on version 14.1.4.6 and was wondering if it could work.
