In SCM, using the file entity, is it possible to use ** for subdirectory and exclude a specific directory? We have some standard folder structures and it would be easier to use wild card and exclude the few that aren't needed.
Hi there,
Yes, this is how it work in SCM:
The File element type in Server Configuration Monitor (SCM) is defined by a full path to a Linux file (applicable to Linux nodes only) or to a Windows node only (applicable to Windows nodes only). This path can use the wild character * for any part of the filename, the wild character ** for any subdirectory, and system variables such as %WINDIR% or Linux system variables such as ${HOME}.
