Summary

New Feature: Ability to Hide Performance Counters from Pull-down Menus in Argent Commander

This feature may be used for customers who don’t want specific OBJECT/COUNTER/INSTANCE entries from appearing as selectable metrics in Argent Commander

Technical Background

This is configured on an enterprise-wide (NOT user-based) scale

The configuration is stored in XML\ARGSOFT_EXCLUDE.XML

This XML file supports wildcards ‘*’ — here is an example:

<ARGENT>

	<!-- Wildcards (*) are supported in all cases -->


	<EXCLUDE	MACHINE	="*" 

				OBJECT	="CustomObject"		

				COUNTER	="CustomCounter"	

				INSTANCE="CustomInstance" />



	<EXCLUDE	MACHINE	="SVR1" 

				OBJECT	="Disk"	

				COUNTER	="Free Space"		

				INSTANCE="Z:" />

</ARGENT>

Resolution
