I see that  update_subclient_filters_template.xml allows for specific VMs to be added to filters but can it also be used to remove them?  I tried changing  -vmFilterOperationType ADD to DEL or REM but no luck.

Hi JDods,

I believe we use the following values for the operation types:

 

  • ADD - Add filters.
  • OVERWRITE - Overwrite existing filters.
  • DELETE - Delete the filters.

 

Can you retry the command with these operation type values and report back?
