Cloud Config:Manually re-evaluate resources

Last Updated:Aug 07, 2023

This topic describes how to manually re-evaluate resources. After you modify rules or resources, you can manually re-evaluate resources if you want to immediately view the latest compliance evaluation results. If you do not manually re-evaluate resources, you can view the compliance evaluation results only after resource configurations are changed or rules are triggered at the scheduled time.

Prerequisites

The value in the Status column of the rule that you want to delete is Enable.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Cloud Config console.

  2. Optional. In the upper-left corner, select an account group.

    This operation is required only if you are using a management account of a resource directory. Otherwise, you do not need to perform the operation.

  3. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Compliance & Audit > Rules.

  4. On the Rules page, find the rule, click the image..png icon in the Actions column, and then select Re-evaluate.

  5. In the Re-evaluate dialog box, click OK.

    By default, the current rule does not re-evaluate ignored resources.

    If you want to evaluate ignored resources, select "Reset the Ignore Evaluation parameter for resources and evaluate all resources again", and click OK. In the Compliance Result of Related Resources section, Revert Evaluation Result is automatically changed to Ignore Evaluation Result in the Actions column.

    Note
