Configuration baselines in Configuration Manager 2007 contain predefined configuration items and configuration baseline rules around those configuration items. For client computers to assess their compliance with them, the configuration baselines must be assigned either directly or through another assigned configuration baseline. However, you can stop client computers from assessing their compliance with an assigned configuration baseline by disabling the configuration baseline. To start compliance evaluation again, enable the configuration baseline.

| Enabling and disabling a configuration baseline increments the configuration baseline version number to reflect the status change. |
