In addition to filtering on file names, file extensions, folder paths, or partial path wildcard pattern matching, you can filter based on a file's last modified date. Peer Management Center only supports filtering on a file's last modified date and does not support filtering on a folders last modified date. In addition, if you have a folder hierarchy that contains files that are all being filtered based on last modified date, then all folders will still be created during the initial scan process on all hosts. If a file is excluded from collaboration based on its last modified date, then the initial scanning process will not synchronize the file even if the file's last modified time and size do not match, or the file does not exist on all hosts. However, the file will be synchronized, if and when the file is modified in the future, and if a user deletes or renames the file on any host, the file will be deleted or renamed from all other hosts where the file exists.
Note that a file filter cannot combine filtering on last modifed date with inclusion or exclusion patterns or file size. The last modified date is the sole criteria used to identify matching files.
Include all dates |
This is the default option and will include all files regardless of last modified date. |
Include today and past |
Includes all files whose last modified date are more recent then the specified number days. For example, you can exclude all files that have not been modified within the last year (365 days). |
Include older than |
Includes all files whose last modified date are older then the specified number days. |
