FA_HOST_DIRECTIVE
This advanced parameter is for File Analytics collection initiated through Host Inventory for Linux hosts. FA_HOST_DIRECTIVE allows the user to associate it with the target host and specify the following:
[scan_root_dirs={dir1 to scan}[~[dirs to exclude]][:dir n to scan]] [capture_remote_shares={Y/N} [root_scan_depth={1..10}]
Value: scan_root_dirs=/opt/aptare~/inode2*:/filetest/rnddirfiles capture_remote_shares=Y root_scan_depth=3
scan_root_dirs - By default the root directory is "/", with this directive, one can override the root directory. You can specify one or more root directories (separated by : ), helpful if all you are interested in are specific file share directories.You can specify one or more excludes for each of the root directory. ~ separates the excludes from the root, and each exclude is separated by ","
capture_remote_shares - By default it is N, when set to Y the code will capture remote shares.
root_scan_depth - The default is 1, but the recommendation is to set it to 3 or 5 if scanning a large filesystem.
