  • 1.  Adding Wildcard * to exceptions (Configuring Centralized General Exceptions)

    Posted Mar 13, 2012 04:40 AM

    Hello,

     

    Is there a way/syntax in SEPM 12.1 to add a global exception for a file without specifiying its location.

    Example :

    Exclude jvm.jar in all folders.

     

    Regards,

    Hafez

    Hi Hafez,

    Appologies for any miscommunication- it is not possible to use a wildcard the way to wish.  The articles linked provide instructions on what it is possible to configure.

    Hope this helps!

    I don't think it's possible to use wild cards as your looking for...

    There is no way to add wildcards like * in CE policy. You can exclude a process though without specifying the location, but be noted that it will be for truscan exception. 

     

    Hope this helps.

    As of now it is not possible to use wild card for file location. But it is possible to create an exception for the file extension (*.jar).

    You may perform below steps for this

    1. AnchorAnchorOn the Centralized Exceptions Policy page, click Centralized Exceptions.
    2. AnchorAnchorUnder Centralized Exceptions, click Add > Windows Exceptions > Security Risk Exceptions > Extension.
    3. AnchorAnchorIn the text box, type the extension that you want to exclude (jar), and then click Add.
    4. AnchorAnchorRepeat step 3 to add more extensions to the exception.
    5. AnchorAnchorClick OK.
    6. AnchorAnchorIf you are finished with the configuration for this policy, click OK.
