Is it possible to automate or script the setup of folder exclusions / exceptions?

    Hi,

     

    I'd like to automatically add some folder exceptions when SEP is installed. For example D:\Database should be added to the SONAR exceptions list. Ideally I'd like to do this during silent installation of SEP via a setup script I usually run to install the product. I looked at the list of MSI parameters I can install with but didn't see anything for adding exceptions to prevent scanning of folders.

    Is there a way I can automate this?

     

    Thanks

    It can't be done via MSI.

    Build the group and policy in SEPM. When the client(s) get deployed make sure they go to this new group so they get the policy with your exceptions.
