Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Dmf Namespace

The Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Dmf namespace contains classes that represent the SQL Server policy-based management objects. 

The top-level class is the PolicyStore class, where the following objects are child objects: Policy, Condition, PolicyGroupSubscription, PolicyCategory, Facets

The Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Facets namespace supports the Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Dmf namespace.
