Choosing an inclusive or exclusive filter

The /AgentSetup/application_name.filterType configuration variable determines the type of filter for a corresponding filter list. You must create this variable.

Example

To exclude three instances of an Oracle database, you must create a filter type variable, "/AgentSetup/ORACLE.filterType" ={REPLACE="exclude"}, and a corresponding filter list variable, "/AgentSetup/ORACLE.filterList" ={REPLACE="ORACLE_A,ORACLE_B,ORACLE_C"}.

Values

exclude — if discovered, do not monitor
include — if discovered, monitor

Default value

Exclude

Minimum \ maximum

Not applicable

Dependencies

/AgentSetup/application_name.filterList specifies items (application instances) that are monitored (include) or not (exclude). Each .filterList needs a .filterType.

Recommendation

Create a configuration variable of this type with a different application name for each application. Valid application names are described in the KM reference manuals.
