DQL - Where is the container information held

[Phil_Rosier]

Data Insight has a useful feature where objects such as filers or shares can be placed into containers to faciliate management, for example to group together the filers that reside within the same data centres to enable more granular management and reporting at the data center level. Several of the out-of-the-box reports support this feature and provide the ability for users to specify the containers in the data selection tab.. 

Does anyone know whether containers can be specified in DQL reports, and if so which tables and columns provide this information as there doesn't seem to be any reference to it in the SDK guide.

Thanks

Phil.

Hi Phil,

Today, Containers are not available in the DQL. One workaround is to extract this data from config db and utilize bulk input in DQL (That was added in 4.5).

Thanks,
