      In 19.1.1 we enhanced the fileset driver to allow it to scan multiple directories on the inbound side.

      In order to make this work, you’ll need to surround the directory names with curly braces {} — e.g.

      {dir1} {dir2} {dirN}

      It’s important to note that this is true even if you only have 1 directory:

      {dir1}

       

      If you use hcirootcopy to migrate a site from a previous version, the tool will update your NetConfig and add the braces automatically.

       

      In a future release, we’ll add a checkbox that says “single directory only” so you won’t need the braces for a single directory.  But for now you’ll need to add the braces manually if you’re creating a new inbound connection.

       

      Please let me know if there are any questions.

          Nice feature.

          As I understand it in 19.1 and later there is a built-in function to filter the files found list. Now that the files could come from multiple directories will that feature allow for control over something like including a filename from one directory but not another? Or is that a DirParse UPoC responsibility?

            The built in function will only filter on a pattern (either simple like *.dat or a regex).

            If you want to exclude directories you can either build a smart regex or use dirparse.
