Edit Resource: Top XX Volumes by Disk Space Used how to filter out cached memory from top 10 list?

All of my linux boxes always show 100% of cached memory disk volumes used so they always sit at top of the top ten list...

Does anyone know a filter to put in to exclude Cached Memory volumes from the top 10 list?

Hi,

I would like to do something similar related to ESX volumes that will always be at a high percent used.

What syntax would I use to exclude anything that starts with VMFS

I actually have to filter out the cached memory and the shared memory. How do I add multiple filters?

Need to know on this as well, any help?

(Volumes.Caption<>'Cached memory') AND (Volumes.Caption<>'whatever other stuff')

Not in front of a SolarWinds installation now to say exactly...may even be 'shared memory'. If you get in your database and look at volume tables, it should be apparent.

From memory, I believe it's (Volumes.Caption <> 'VMFS%'). There are examples within the web interface filter editing dialog the last I tried. From Lada Varga's earlier post, that still seems to be the case.
