Add exceptions/omissions for User Activity Monitoring Plan

Please describe your idea in detail. What is your problem, why do you feel this idea is the best solution, etc.

Unlike other monitoring plans in Netwrix, User Activity Monitoring doesn’t support exclusions for specific machines. I have a plan targeting a server OU that includes cluster and VM accounts, which aren’t directly accessible and cause recurring errors and duplicate warnings. It would be helpful if UAM plans could support exclusion mechanisms like omiterrors.txt or omitcollectlist.txt to suppress these known exceptions, just as other Netwrix plans do. Thank you!

How do you currently solve the challenges you have by not having this feature?

Currently I have disabled the monitoring plan for now. This can also be resolved by placing the device in a sub-OU and marking the sub-OU to not be monitored by the plan. However, I do not plan to rearrange AD to make this work.
