If a linkset appears in both the linksets.include file and t he
linksets.exclude file, it is excluded. That is, excluding a linkset overrides
including the same linkset.
If you specify a special include file on the sgm accstats or sgm linkstats
command, SGM ignores the linksets.include file. See the “Including
Specific Nodes in Custom Reports” section on page3-374 for more
information on the special include file.
To exclude specific nodes or signaling points from reports, create the
user-defined nodes.exclude file and list the nodes and signaling points in the
file. Those nodes and signaling points will be excluded from automatically
generated SGM accounting statistics and network statistics reports, as well as
from custom reports that were generated with the default keyword (or no
node-list keyword at all) on the sgmaccstats or sgm linkstats command.
Keep in mind the following considerations:
If you installed SGM in the default directory, /opt, then the nodes.exclude
file is located at /opt/CSCOsgm/reports/etc/nodes.exclude.
If you installed SGM in a different directory, or if you moved the report
files directory using the sgmrepdir command, then the
/reports/etc/nodes.exclude file is located in that directory.
Each line in the nodes.exclude file must contain a single node name, or
node name and signaling point name, that matches exactly the real, fully
qualified node name of the node, and each line must end with a colon (:).
For example:
sgm-75-59a.cisco.com:
sgm-26-51a.cisco.com:
To exclude a specific signaling point, specify the node name and
signaling point:
sgm-75-59a.cisco.com;net0:
sgm-26-51a.cisco.com;net1:
Wildcard matching is not supported.
