Doing Nova DPC Demos

Effectively demoing Nova Delegation & Policy Control comes with knowledge of the product, and with some practice.

On this page you’ll find information about doing a Nova Delegation & Policy Control demo in a special environment which Greg Jones has created.

Do not use this for ‘playing’, only use it for demos.

Note: The links on this page may not take you to the content. Reach out to Greg Jones if you do not have access.

A Word document that explains each of the demo environments, the policies which have been configured, how to use the environment, and more, is available here.

Remember:

  • Do not modify the existing policies
  • Remove any users who have been assigned to a policy, at the end of the demo.

Accompanying the document is a series of videos put together by Greg Jones which walk through each of the use cases.

The videos are best viewed in full screen.
