2. In the Match field, enter the file name upon which you want the condition to be based. For example, you can enter *.exe, *.mp3, *.avi.
3. Select the location where the file name will be searched during the scan:
In any directory - During a scan, Tivoli Storage Resource Manager will look for the file name in any directory. In this condition, the search string will occur at the end of the full directory path.
Append to scanned directory - This option allows you to restrict what directory to scan. Tivoli Storage Resource Manager will look for the file type in the specified file system root directory or in a monitored directory in a directory group tied to a scan. In this option, you must first specify what directory group(s) you want scanned in the Directory Groups tab of the Scan window.
Fully-qualified path - Enter the fully qualified path when you enter the file type in the Match field. During a scan, Tivoli Storage Resource Manager will look for the file type in the exact path you specify here. This is useful when you want to exclude system directories and files in a State File report.
4. After you specify each file type and the location, press Add. The file name will be shown in the display window.
5. When you are finished specifying all the file names you want to filter, press OK. The condition will be displayed in the File Filters tab.
