Exclusion rules overview
Exclusion rules determine which IBM Sametime chat log files should not be imported into the Instant IMtegrity chat log database (imtchatlog9.nsf).
Exclusion rules do not apply to multi-part log files.
(Multi-part log files get generated for long-running chats if the Commit interval is set to anything other than Off in server configuration documents)
Evaluation order
If no exclusion rule(s) exist, the log file is considered eligible for import, and evaluation continues with Action Rules.
If one or more enabled exclusion rule(s) exist, and if the log file satisfies at least one enabled exclusion rule, it will be deleted and not be imported, but evaluation continues with Action Rules.
If not a single enabled exclusion rule is satisfied by the log file, it will be considered eligible for import, and evaluation continues with Action Rules.
