An active policy processes objects continuously, and is interrupted if changes are made to the policy. If you edit, delete, or disable a rule while a run is in progress, then that run terminates within 15 minutes, and runs again within 24 hours. If you disable or delete all of the rules in a policy, then the policy becomes inactive, and no new runs will be scheduled.

The time required for a run to complete depends on the number of blobs evaluated and operated on. Runs can take longer if the number of requests being made per second reaches the request per second limit of the account. All requests made to storage account, including requests made by policy runs, accrue to the same limit on requests per second, and as that limit approaches, priority is given to requests made by workloads. To request an increase in account limits, contact [Azure Support](https://azure.microsoft.com/support/faq/).

Unfortunately, there's no way to track the time at which the policy will be executing, as it's a background scheduling process. A policy is scheduled to run once per day (_per 24 hours_). The time required for a run to complete depends on the number of blobs evaluated and operated on. If a run takes longer than 24 hours to complete, then that run continues without interruption. After the run completes, it is scheduled to run again within 24 hours.

Unfortunately, there's no way to track the time at which the policy will be executing, as it's a background scheduling process. Lifecycle policies start execution within 24 hours of a rule being created or updated. Policies process objects continuously in the background, as required. Priority is given to requests from workloads. So, there's no way to track the time at which a policy may be executing. The time required to process objects may depend on the request rate for the storage account. This time may be longer if the request rate for the storage account approaches the storage account limit.

I created a new inventory rule. Will it run at the same time every day?
