public sealed class OSPolicy.Types.Resource : IMessage<OSPolicy.Types.Resource>, IEquatable<OSPolicy.Types.Resource>, IDeepCloneable<OSPolicy.Types.Resource>, IBufferMessage, IMessage
Reference documentation and code samples for the Google Cloud OS Config v1 API class OSPolicy.Types.Resource.
An OS policy resource is used to define the desired state configuration
and provides a specific functionality like installing/removing packages,
executing a script etc.
The system ensures that resources are always in their desired state by
taking necessary actions if they have drifted from their desired state.
