With this monitoring program, a user can only include files in the monitoring process if the SM2 primary administrator has permitted the monitoring of file access values. This permission can be granted either to all users or to users with certain IDs.
In this case, the SM2 MEASUREMENT STATUS screen will have the entry FILE in the line entitled USER MEASUREMENTS ALLOWED.
Each authorized user can include and exclude files which are set up under his own ID. It is also possible to include files which do not exist. Privileged users are not treated differently from normal users.
Any monitored files are excluded from the monitoring process once SM2 is terminated.
All together, up to 32 files can be monitored by this monitoring program; no values for these files are written to the SM2 output file.
