Exclusions

The access to specific files and directories within the OMN system can be restricted. Excluded folders and files are not displayed in the user interface navigation.

The files and directories are still available on direct storage access. The configuration only affects the display within the OMN system.

Exclusions can be made at both, the storage and volume level.
