Pattern Definition
Valid file patterns start with $, which are followed by a colon. The file pattern can contain the asterisk symbol (*)
and the question mark (?). When a file pattern represents a subvolume or a volume, you can use the subvolume
or volume name.
For example, you can replace the pattern "$DEV.SVTGEN.*" with "$DEV.SVTGEN". A pattern cannot be a file
name, such as $DEV.THD.INSPCSTM.
NOTE:
To avoid excessive CPU usage, avoid pattern such as $*.*.*.
Range Definition
The general syntax for a range is:
"<"| "<=" | "=" | ">=" | ">" Value
,
["in" | "out" ] "[" minValue "," maxValue "]" with minValue < maxValue
or
Empty string
When the range is an empty string, FileScan generates an alert, if the file count is 0.
The following table presents the ranges that you can use to monitor file patterns.
Syntax Description
Empty String
Generates an alert if the file count is equal to 0.
10 or =10
Generates an alert if the file count is equal to 10.
>=10 or >9
Generates an alert if the file count is greater or equal to 10
<=10 or <11
Generates an alert if file count is lower or equal to 10
in [10, 20]
Generates an alert if the file count is within the range of 10-20
out [20, 35]
Generates an alert if file count is out of the 20-35 range
$system.sys??.zzsa*:>0
Generates an alert if saveabends files exist
$data01.appexe.zzsa*:>=8
Generates an alert if more than 8 saveabends exist
$dev.ssvcfg.*conf:<=10 Generates an alert if there are less than ten configuration files
$dev.ssvdata: [10,20]
Generates an alert if the number of files is within the range of 10-20
$dev.ssvdata: in [10,20]
Generates an alert if the number of files is within the range of 10-20
$dev.ssvarch: out [10,20]
Generates an alert if number is outside of the range 10-20.
