New File Group

A file group enables you to specify several different file types to that are to be treated together for the purposes of file archiving.

For example, you could create a file group called "Web Pages" and within it have the file types *.htm, *.html, and *.gif. Within a FSA policy you could then define a rule that applied to "Web Pages".

The list shows the file types that comprise this file group.

Note:

*.* matches only those file names that have extensions, such as .txt, .pdf, .doc. To match all file names, both with and without extensions, you must enter * as the file type.
