Robocopy Exclude specific file pattern in a specific folder

We are trying to build a script to mirror the user documents to a personal networkfolder, but it happens that a scanner sends files in the format "doc*.pdf" to that folder. Is it possible to exclude just these files in that folder? Because if the
user copies them in his document folder they should be mirrored, but if he didn't allrdy copied we dont want then to be deleted.
What we tried so far was:
robocopy "C:\Users\username\Documents" "\\server\users\username" /MIR /XF \\server\users\username\doc*.pdf
But it did not work, robocopy does not seem to accept the argument. Anyway he accepts
robocopy "C:\Users\username\Documents" "\\server\users\username" /MIR /XF \\server\users\username\doc.pdf
But this does not help us, as we need a pattern to be ignored not just a specific filename.

as far as I know, wildcards are supported only if the filename is a filename, not a path.
robocopy <sourcedir> <destdir> /MIR /XF doc*.pdf

Robocopy - exclude destination files from /MIR

Attempting to do a nightly run of robocopy while we transfer over to a new file server. We've a load of extra files with an offline attribute on the destination, which are files archived by Enterprise Vault which we moved in advance, and so these must not
be touched.
If I do robocopy source destination /MIR /XA:O, all these files still get deleted. Shouldn't the exclude switch apply to files on the destination as well as the source?

Thanks for the Replies.
Aaron, that doesn't seem to be the case, /MIR /XA:O doesn't exclude offline files that are on the destination only
Shaon, there are no files on the source that have the offline attribute, they've been moved over to the destination server already using a different (very slow) process, and now I want to keep the normal files in sync, including copying over new files
and deleting any files that no longer exist on the source, without deleting the files with an offline attribute. /xn would allow me to copy the newly changed files over, but I can't think of a way of deleting files on the destination.
I may have to go with just /xn, which isn't perfect

How to Write Path to Exclude Specific Folder From Scanning in Endpoint Antimalware policy

Robocopy Exclude file types

We are building a script to copy data from a laptop to our servers using robocopy, but we dont want to backup movie files and pictures. is there a way to have robocopy exclude specific file types?

Hi,
/xf <FileName>[ ...]
Excludes files that match the specified names or paths. Note that FileName can include wildcard characters (* and ?).
e.g. robocopy <Source> <Destination> /xf *.jpg

MDT 2013 USMT customization to exclude specific file types

Hi,
I have a need to exclude a specific file type from migration with USMT within MDT 2013.
So far, I think I know the following:
I have to create a custom XML file.
I have to place the custom XML file in the deployment share's Tools\x86|x64\USMT5 folder.
I have to reference the custom XML file customsettings.ini using USMTMigFiles003 (1 and 2 are used by the default files).
I think I'll need to use unconditionalExclude.
However, I am having trouble finding a proper example of a custom XML file. I can find the reference documentation, but actually having a single example isn't as easy to find.
Specifically, I want to exclude all VMDK (VMware virtual hard disks) from being migrated, regardless of where on the machine they are.
Thanks for any assistance,
SA.

You need something like the below. You can find it in the provided link:
<unconditionalExclude>
If you want to exclude a file type from the migration, regardless of the other <include> or <exclude> rules, you can use the <unconditionalExclude> element. This element excludes objects globally across all components. For example, you
should use this element if you want to exclude all .mp3 files from the computer.
<migration urlid="http://www.microsoft.com/migration/1.0/migxmlext/excludefiles">
<component context="System" type="Documents">
<displayName>Test</displayName>
<role role="Data">
<rules>
<unconditionalExclude>
<objectSet>
<script>MigXmlHelper.GenerateDrivePatterns ("* [*.mp3]", "Fixed")</script>
</objectSet>
</unconditionalExclude>
</rules>
</role>
</component>
</migration>

Credit Limit Check - Exclude Specific Documents / Credits from Exposure

Hi,
I would like to know if it's possible to exclude specific document types (credits) from the credit exposure calculation used during credit limit checks.
The ideia is to exclude "DG" credits in customer GL that are related to Trade Deal/Agreements to avoid over-exposure.
Let me explain:
Currently, our credit management is configured to "Static" + "Open Items" for all credit groups in the CCA. Therefore, SAP calculates the credit exposure as:
          CE = OPEN ORDERS (S066) + OPEN DELIVERIES (S067) + OPEN BILLING (S067) + OPEN ITEMS (BSID)
Regarding "Open Items", I understand that SAP calculates the net value between all debits (receivables) and credits (returns, overpayments, etc...) already posted and not cleared in the Customer GL account. This rationale is correct since the credits are due to the customers and should be deducted from their exposure (i.e. "you may not pay them if you don't receive").
However, in our case, we also pay trade deals contracts (i.e. trade incentives and trade marketing investments) directly to costumers and apart from sales orders or credit memos. The flow is the following: (1) contracts are managed on a satelite system and interfaced to SAP; (2) contracts are created in the costumer GL as a credit (doc. type "DG"); (3) credits are sent to accounts payable for payment via F110.
Problem is that, contract credits volume is significant and are impacting customers credit exposure and limit check, resulting in greater exposure than allowed. That is, orders are being released while contract credits are open in the customer GL up to the max exposure, but when contracts are paid the exposure goes above the limit. For example:
Day 1:
          Costumer Credit Limit: 100
          Sales Balance: 30
          Open Itens: 50 (receivables: 70 / contracts: -20)
          Credit Exposure: 80/100
Day 2:
          Costumer Credit Limit: 100
          Sales Balance: 50
          Open Itens: 50 (receivables: 70 / contracts: -20)
          Credit Exposure: 100/100 (no additional orders are released)
Day 3:
          Costumer Credit Limit: 100
          Sales Balance: 50
          Open Itens: 70 (receivables: 70 / contracts: 0 - contracts are paid on day 3)
          Credit Exposure: 120/100 (exposure is above customer limit since contracts that were being deducted were paid)
Any ideas or thoughts? Is something wrong in the explanation above? Should contracts credits be treated through special GL?
Many thanks!

Hello Julie,
the 2nd, System behavior (how do you interact the credit limit check (yes/no question) via DI?)
Workaround:
Before you issue the Document, you may do a manual check: BP balance againt Credit Limit, and make deceision.

Find Specific File Type Group in Specific Folder

Hi, I dont know how to find a specific group of files (i.e. all movies, all music etc) in one specific folder (and its sub folders) on Snowleopard.
I do know how to find a single file type (i.e. .mov, .mp3)
Thanks for the help.

Hi,
And, Welcome to Apple Discussions!
In the search box, type
kind:
(that's "kind" followed by a colon) followed by either
movie
image
or
music
I just tested it myself (I've never actually used it!) and it works a treat.
HTH,

How to make the Installer place support files in specific folder

Hi,
I'm trying to use the LabVIEW2009 installer for the first time. I haven't used any earlier ones, so my understanding is limited. I have created a project and an executable and wish to direct the installer to place some groups of files in a number of directories other than the one in which the executable goes. On the Source Files page I can see a number of Folder descriptions in square brackets. I don't understand how to use these. Are they to be set up to point to specific directories? If so how?
So far I have managed to create an installer which puts all the support files from the project in a single directory. My attempts to select a subset of files within the Project View window and place them in a separate directory were not allowed since they are treated as an indivisible group. Basically i don't know enough about the installer and my searches for information have only yielded very basic information.
If anyone can help by supplying or pointing to more detailed information I'd be most grateful.
Thanks
George
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi George
This is from the LV help:
Destination View—Specifies the location and directory structure of the files when they are installed. Select an item from the Project View tree and click the arrow button or drag the file to the Destination View tree to include it in the installer directory structure. You can drag multiple files at the same time. Click the buttons below the Destination View tree to add, remove, and rename folders in the directory. You also can right-click the folders and select a command from the shortcut menu.
The folders in the Destination View directory that do not have an LV prefix correspond to Microsoft Installer (MSI) properties that install files in the following locations.
[CommonAppDataFolder]—Files you include in this folder install to the Application Data folder.
[CommonFilesFolder]—Files you include in this folder install to the Common Files folder.
[DesktopFolder]—Files you include in this folder install to the Windows desktop of the current Windows user.
[LVxxRTEDIR]—Where xx is the LabVIEW version currently in use. Files you include in this folder install to the folder of the Run-Time Engine for the LabVIEW version currently in use.
[LVDIR]—Files you include in this folder install to the folder of the LabVIEW version currently in use.
You can find a full list of the MSI properties here. Scroll down to "System Folder Properties"
Best Regards

When saving files, Illustrator defaults back to desktop instead of specific folder.

Whenever I've worked on a file and want to save it to a specific folder (most of the files I work on are saved in folders within folders), Illy keeps defaulting back to the desktop instead of the specific folder. There must be a setting I accidentally activated/deactivated to cause this, but I'm not sure how to change it...!

I'm having the same problem with Illustrator. However, how is it that InDesign seems to have no problem defaulting back to the same folder that Illustrator does not. Also, I can't seem to find any setting to specifically change the default save folder in Illustrator. I don't remember this ever being an issue before today. What's up with that?
OSX 10.9.4
Illustrator 18.0.0
InDesign 10.0.0.70

Query Count files under Specific folder in Sccm?

Hello!
I try to create a Query in sccm. There I want to count files under a specific folder. If folder on the client have less than 35 files, show the name of that computer. How should I begin to create that Query? Should I use criteria Software files Count?
Greetings
Emil

I think for this task you will find it easier to create a report instead. Queries are based on WQL which has some limitations.

Mastering ConfigMgr 2012 The Fundamentals

Can I capture a picture with my ipad, and save it as a PNG and/or SVG file to a specific folder?

Can I capture a picture with my ipad, and save it as a PNG and/or SVG file to a specific folder?

Kind of, sort of. (You can't save as SVG, but you can export as PNG.) PS Touch projects themselves are self-contained UNTIL they are exported, and even then they'll get exported to a specific location. (e.g., To the Camera Roll or Gallery/Photos, to Creatve Cloud, etc.)
The procedure would be to start a new project using the "add image" icon (looks like a landscape with a plus sign, in the lower right in the project selection user interface) > Camera. Take your picture, then PS Touch will bring you to the editing user interface. Edit your image as appropriate.
Go back out to the project selection user interface by tapping the back arrow in the upper left to save. You can then export the project using the export icon (5th icon from the upper right).

Exclude specific user from aaa authorization commands

Hi there,
I am trying to find a solution to exclude specific users from being authorized (AAA command authorization) when entering commands on the switch/router.
We use an AAA setup with Cisco ACS. On the devices we use:
aaa authorization config-commands
aaa authorization commands 1 default group tacacs+ local
aaa authorization commands 5 default group tacacs+ local
aaa authorization commands 15 default group tacacs+ local
is it possible, to exclude an user, say User1, from being command authorized?
In other words, when User1 logs on the switch/router, the switch/router shouldn't check the ACS if User1 is authorized to use this command.
We tried this with method lists in combination with ACL's on the VTY's:
line VTY 0
access-class 1 in
line VTY 1
access-class 2 in
Let's say, User1 always logs in from a specific IP, which is mentioned in access-list 2, the switch would use the method mentioned within the line vty 1.
But apparently, when a remote connection is being established, the switch/router uses the first VTY which is available, instead of watching which ACL can be matched to the source IP from the User.
Does anyone have some tips/tricks how to handle this?
Maybe a custom attribute from the ACS?
Kind Regards

If that user belongs to a unique group then you can write a policy where "if the user is in group x then return "access_reject" Or return "access_accept" but set the privilege level to "1" and block all commands.
Thank you for rating helpful posts!
