  • [ @policy_category= ] 'policy_category'
    Is the name of the policy category to subscribe to. policy_category is sysname, and is required.

    To obtain values for policy_category, query the msdb.dbo.syspolicy_policy_categories system view.

Remarks

You must run sp_syspolicy_add_policy_category_subscription in the context of the msdb system database.

If you specify a policy category that does not exist, a new policy category is created and the subscription is mandated for all databases when you execute the stored procedure. If you then clear the mandated subscription for the new category, the subscription will only apply for the database that you specified as the target_object. For more information about how to change a mandated subscription setting, see sp_syspolicy_update_policy_category (Transact-SQL).

Permissions

This stored procedure runs in the context of the current owner of the stored procedure.
