Ankur, uh.... "BMC management fears" that a def file might get corrupted while it is out on the file system???!!!????
hum..... The only technical rub that I can think of would be if the work your doing with these filters "turned off" would include other admin work. ( Which would make the concern about presents of the filters a really strange, and seemingly unrelated to the work, thing to me in the first place.) The point of the packing list is to make it easier to process the set once they are identified. (for export, delete and import) The work of identifying them has to be done "one at a time no mater how you look at it. Oh well, I guess there is more requirements that we do not know about. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap.... Pick two. Never ascribe to malice, that which can be explained by incompetence.
