Use of External Filters with the Web Client (Vantage Storage Point).

Products

• Vantage Storage Resource Manager

Issue/Introduction

How do I access and use External Filters (EXTFLTDS) in the Web Client   I can do this in the Windows Client easily - create them, update them, etc. in TSO, and then access and use them in the Windows Client.   

Environment

Vantage

Resolution

The Action 'Manage Filters' opens the External Filter Manager in the Windows Client.  In Vantage Storage Point (Web Client), this can be accomplished by selecting the 'Host Configurations' dialog (the 'gear' icon in the upper left portion of the view, with the word 'Hosts' next to this 'gear' icon).  This will present the 'Configurations' panel (below the Hosts list), from which the 'Include / Exclude' folder can be opened to thus define the settings for Include/Exclude processing)
