Filter Rule
File Filter
You must select one of the following:
• Filter - specify the filter pattern to apply.
• Directory - specify the online backup directory where you want to apply the filter. You must enter the full \\share_name\directory_path where the filter will be applied. For example “C:\temp\files\” will archive files fitting the filter pattern from that specific path. Each filter must be applied to a specific directory path (do not leave this field blank).
• Include sub-directories - check to include all the sub-folders in the specified directory.
Regular Expression
 
Regular Expression can provide more specific filtering at the filename or file pattern level. However, you must learn the Regular Expression software syntax.
