Version 11.2 and Earlier

Operator policies allow operators to enforce certain policies. Their definitions are merged with regular policy definitions before the result is applied to matching queues.
Operator policies are limited to a small set of arguments. See https://www.rabbitmq.com/parameters.html#operator-policies for more information.

To create an operator policy, do the following:

1. Click on an operator policy viewlet.
2. Enter the Operator Policy Name.
3. In the Pattern field, enter a regular expression pattern to help match queues to this operator policy by queue name.
4. In the Apply To field, indicate the object that the operator policy applies to (for example, queues or exchanges).
5. Enter a Priority to determine the relative likelihood of this policy being applied. 
6. Click OK to save the operator policy.
