Description

The RENAME_FILE option specifies whether or not a file that is being monitored - as specified via an EVENT_TYPE of FILE - should be renamed by UEM when the event occurrence is set to a triggered state.

Renaming a file ensures that UEM will not treat a file that it just finished tracking as a new event occurrence.

Value

option is the specification for whether or not a file should be renamed.

Valid values for option are:

• yes: File is renamed according to the RENAME_FILE_SPECIFICATION option.
• no: File is not renamed.

If option is set to no, in order to prevent multiple detection of the file by the UEM Server, rename the file in a script invoked by an event handler when the occurrence is triggered.

If RENAME_FILE is not used, a default value of yes, as set by the UEM Server configuration, is used.
