<remedy_details> Discussion with Netvision provided the following details:



Alan, I checked into the NetVision's filtering capabilities and I
understated its scope yesterday. Following is accurate.



NetVision Filter Criteria for DS Events



Specific Object

Location i.e. container (optional subcontainers)

Class

Attr

Object name

Group

Time

Perpetrator

Local event vs. replicated event



Prefiltering of events

Prefiltering Events is a user-configurable list of events that are
ALWAYS filtered. This increases performance and scalability by quickly
discarding undesirable events.

Some examples of prefiltered events (usually attr values) that customers
do not want to see:

Revision, Transitive Vector, Purge Vector, Local Received Up To and all
the recurring NLS events. This is not a complete list; just examples.

<remedy_notes> aclark (  9/10/02 7:44:14 PM  Fixing - Approved for
      Investigation ) Netvision views the extension as unusable, unless we
      provide this feature.
