green dot icon: A blocking constraint has been disabled so that it behaves like a match. The
figure below shows the green dot icon next to that the constraint that was formerly blocked and
can now behave as a match.
If you right-click a constraint in the table, a popup menu with three options is displayed. This menu
lets you change the status of the constraint.
Show Admin View: Select this option to open the Admin View for the specific resource
selected.
Disable Constraint: Select this option to disable (attach a green dot icon to) a constraint.
Disabling a constraint with this function effectively makes it match, a condition that can prove
useful if you want to perform a "what if" test without actually changing a policy.
Enable All Constraints: Select this option if you have disabled one or more constraints during
testing and you want to restore them to the enabled state.
Cached Constraints in the Constraints Column
When you change the constraint type in the Constraints Type List, the background of the table
changes to green for some types. These are "cached" constraints that are saved with the job after it
has completed. Their purpose is to help you debug the policy.

4.1.6 The Policy Column of the Constraints Table

The Policy column of the constraints table displays the policy name that contributed the constraint.
Right-click a policy name to open a popup menu offering the option to open the policy editor for the
specified policy. The menu also includes constraint enabling or disabling options, just as the popup
menu for constraint column does.
