The report event is configured by the Report tab of the Add Threshold dialog box, as shown
in Figure 2-20. When a threshold limit is reached, you can automatically generate one or more
of the standard reports and then optionally have the reports sent to the user or to one or more
administrators. The reports are automatically saved in the default location for reports.

FSRM includes the capability to screen files based on a file name pattern. This screen can
be an active screen, preventing the files from being saved to a specific path or volume or a
passive screen that is used to monitor only. The file screen functionality of FSRM is based on
the file names of the files, not on their content. Although it is traditionally used to filter by file
extension, it can actually be used to filter on any portion of the file name.
NOTE
FILE NAME PATTERNS ONLY
The file screens implemented by FSRM do not prevent users from saving files that they
shouldn't; they only prevent users from saving files whose names match a pattern.
Screening for audio MP3 files (for example, with a pattern of *.mp3) prevents someone
from saving mymusicfile.mp3, but doesn't stop them from saving that same file renamed
to mymusicfile.np3.
