Include or Exclude FlexNet Data in Processing based on Vendor Daemons

You can limit the FlexNet data processed for historical and real-time reporting by specifying vendor daemon names to include or exclude in the daemon_filter configuration file. To do this, follow these steps:

Windows
Unix

Open the daemon_filter file in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.
Specify vendor name patterns globbing to include or exclude with the following syntax:

note
You can specify multiple patterns separated by comma(s).
Explicitly include a pattern
```
include=<include pattern>
```
Explicitly exclude a pattern
```
exclude=<exclude pattern>
```
Examples:

To include everything except data for vendor daemon licsrv, use the following syntax:
Example 1
```
include=*
exclude=licsrv
```
To ignore everything except data for licsrv and lgcx, use the following syntax:
Example 2
```
include=licsrv,lgcx
```
note
include patterns are always checked before exclude patterns. The order in which they appear in this file is insignificant.
Save the changes.

Open the daemon_filter file in the Configuration directory, which is by default in /var/opt/openit/etc.
Specify vendor name patterns globbing to include or exclude with the following syntax:
