AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Active
Take an action when an AWS Directory Service directory is not active based on the
AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Active > * policies.
The Active control determines whether the resource is in active use, and if not, has the ability to delete / cleanup the resource. When running an automated compliance environment, it's common to end up with a wide range of alarms that are difficult and time consuming to clear. The Active control brings automated, well-defined control to this process.
The Active control checks the status of all defined Active policies for the
resource (AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Active > *),
raises an alarm, and takes the defined enforcement action. Each Active
sub-policy can calculate a status of active, inactive or skipped. Generally,
if the resource appears to be Active for any reason it will be considered Active.
Note the contrast with Approved, where if the resource appears to be Unapproved for any reason it will be considered Unapproved.
See Active for more information.
AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Approved
Take an action when an AWS Directory Service directory is not approved based on AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Approved > * policies.
The Approved control checks the status of the defined Approved sub-policies for the resource. If the resource is not approved according to any of these policies, this control raises an alarm and takes the defined enforcement action.
For any enforcement actions that specify if new, e.g., Enforce: Delete unapproved if new, this control will only take the enforcement actions for resources created within the last 60 minutes.
See Approved for more information.
AWS > Directory Service > Directory > CMDB
Record and synchronize details for the AWS Directory Service directory into the CMDB.
The CMDB control is responsible for populating and updating all the attributes for that resource type in the Turbot CMDB.
If set to Skip then all changes to the CMDB are paused - no new resources will be discovered, no updates will be made and deleted resources will not be removed.
To cleanup resources and stop tracking changes, set this policy to "Enforce: Disabled".
CMDB controls also use the Regions policy associated with the resource. If region is not in AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Regions policy, the CMDB control will delete the resource from the CMDB. (Note: Setting CMDB to Skip will also pause these changes.)
AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Discovery
Discover all AWS Directory Service directory resources and add them to the CMDB.
The Discovery control is responsible for finding resources of a specific type. It periodically searches for new resources and saves them to the CMDB. Once discovered, resources are then responsible for tracking changes to themselves through the CMDB control.
Note that Discovery and CMDB controls also use the Regions policy associated with the resource. If the region is not in AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Regions policy, the CMDB control will delete the resource from the CMDB.
AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Tags
Take an action when an AWS Directory Service directory tags is not updated based on the AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Tags > * policies.
If the resource is not updated with the tags defined in AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Tags > Template, this control raises an alarm and takes the defined enforcement action.
See Tags for more information.
AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Usage
The Usage control determines whether the number of AWS Directory Service directory resources exceeds the configured usage limit for this region.
You can configure the behavior of this control with the AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Usage policy, and set the limit with the AWS > Directory Service > Directory > Usage > Limit policy.
