Problem
Filers that are deleted from the Data Insight console are automatically re-added as generic filers.Cause
Filers that are deleted from the Data Insight console are automatically re-added as generic filers if the Configure resources automatically option is checked in the DLP (Data Loss Prevention) console.By default, Data Insight discards classification information for paths on storage devices that it does not monitor. This option can be selected to add the unmonitored devices as generic devices in Data Insight and include classification information for all paths on those devices.
Note: Only data classification information is available for the paths. To enable Data Insight to get audit and metadata information for the paths, you must manually configure the devices in Data Insight.
Solution
To ensure that the filers are not automatically re-added, disable Configure resources automatically from within Settings > Data Loss Prevention.
