When you create a Managed Software Delivery policy, this setting is the same for
each software resource and task that the policy contains. You can edit the policy to
override this setting for each software resource and task. For example, if the execution
of the first software resource fails, you can run subsequent items. Conversely, if one
execution in the sequence fails, you can abort the remaining items in the sequence.
Lets you define default settings for all new Software
Management Solution policies.

Delivery" on page 54.

Lets you change the settings for a specific software resource
that the policy contains. The changes that you make for a
software resource in a specific policy override the global
settings.
