Target Files and Sub-Directories
The Files and Sub-Directories tab found within various directory monitor templates enables users to specify the directories, sub-directories and file types to target.
- From the Directories tab, select each target directory.
- Check the Monitor sub-directories option to trigger actions for each sub-directory rather than the target directory. This option enables users to trigger actions for dynamically created sub-directories such as User data directories.
- Check the Recursively scan sub-directories option to target files found in all sub-directories.
- Use the Exclude sub-directories drop-down box to add any sub-directory found in the tree to exclude from the template. For example: subdir1\subdir1a
- Use the Target files drop-down to limit target files to those that match the specified search criteria. For example: *.log
Note
Some Templates require this value to be set. If required, and you want to target all files, specify *.
Important
To target filenames that contain the current date, specify a date and time search criteria.
For example:
save-me<yyyyMMdd>.bak
For more information see: Custom date and time format strings
- Use the Ignore files drop-down to exclude files that match the specified search criteria. For example: ignore-me.log
- Use the Target files with a modified date and time span controls to target files that have a modified date and time that is either greater than or less than the current date and time minus the specified time span.
