Configuring non-business data definition

Information Map reports on the volume and number of non-business files on your file systems. You can configure what constitutes, non-business data.

To define non-business data

  1. In Information Map, click Administration > Global Settings.
  2. Click Non-business data.
  3. By default, Information Map classifies Audio, Video, and Game files as non-business data. These check-boxes are selected by default.

    Select the item types that you want to categorise as non-business data.

    A number of file formats (extensions) are mapped to an item type. For example, the Game item type includes, among others, the following file formats:

    Extension

    Description

    agx

    AGT Game File

    arena

    Quake 3 Engine Arena File

    bmg

    Nintendo DS On-Screen Text File

    dol

    GameCube Executable File

    gsc

    Call of Duty Game Script

    To review the file format mappings, see the Veritas Information Map User Guide.
