The management system must provide functionality to enable the
metapolicies to specify the desired behaviour of the system with
sufficient management operations. Especially the active metapolicies
invoke actions on the managed objects, which are in their entirety the
management system. Therefore, the system itself must have implemented
the functionality to provide these actions for the enforcement of
metapolicies. This is comparable to the management functions the
management system invokes on behalf of policies on normal managed
objects, because metapolicies use the same approach, but with
different subjects and targets.
