ExcludeFile
excludes a specific file from inventory
collection. This filter is applied to files within a folder included in inventory. This
preference can accept multiple values, separated by commas or semi-colons.Tip: Comma separators can be used freely. If you
use semi-colon separators, it is mandatory on UNIX-like platforms to enclose the
list of values in either single or double ASCII quotation marks. (Be careful that
any copy/paste doesn't switch to 'smart quotes', and use only plain ASCII quotation
marks.)
Note: Inclusions and exclusions can cover folders (and optionally
their sub-folders), file name extensions, specific file names, and specific MD5 digest values.
To resolve conflicting specifications, the specifications of folders provides a data set to
which the following specifications are applied as filters, prioritized from lowest to highest
as:
- File extension
- File name
- MD5 value.
exe
is included, filename
xcopy.exe
excluded, and MD5 value 123456...
(the MD5 for
xcopy.exe
) is included, then the inventory agent includes all files with
extension exe
except for all versions of xcopy.exe
that do
not have an MD5 value 123456...
