Rejected File

As a result of performing the Discovery process, the client tools identify and lists roles as part of a configuration file. The process may identify roles that you decide are redundant, old or that already exist. To prevent the configuration file from displaying roles that are no longer needed you can select such roles and reject them from your active configuration.

By default, rejected roles are removed from the working configuration and saved to a special configuration file called Rejected.cfg. The rejected.cfg file is stored in a predefined path and folder.

The Rejected File option in the General Settings Discovery tab gives you the capability to assign a specific configuration file to collect and house Roles that are rejected from the active configuration file.

To assign a specific configuration to act as the Rejected.cfg file

1. Click File, General Settings.

   The Discover and Audit Settings window opens.

2. Select the Discovery tab.
3. In the Rejected File section click Browse and navigate to the directory that houses your configuration files.
4. Enter a name for your specific file, such as <MyRejected>.cfg, in the File Name edit field.
5. Click Save.

   The Path and File name are listed in the Rejected File edit field.

6. Click Apply.

   The new <rejected>.cfg file is created.
