Without a search policy in effect, the default is to search from the parent container to [Root]. The
search checks each container up the tree towards [Root] for policy packages and handheld
application objects associated with those containers.
The default search policy recognizes the policy package associated with the handheld device object
before it looks in any group or container where such an object resides.
The default search order, Object > Group > Container, can be reordered and can include as few as
one of the locations. For instance, you can exclude Group objects by setting the search order to
Object > Container.
You can avoid unnecessary LAN traffic by searching to an associated container instead of [Root].
The Search policy is required for finding other policies. You set up Search policies at a container
level. Set up as many Search policies as you need to help minimize network traffic.

The Search policy is used to limit how far up the tree ZENworks Handheld Management searches

This both selects and enables the policy.
