In System Management Center, you can add your own purge rules to the EM Shell to use instead of using the default rules.  These rules can be setup either across all instances of EM Shell or at a individual instance of EM Shell. You can also make changes to the EM Shell purge rules for each instance of EM Shell.

Adding purge rules is a two-step process: you create the EM Shell Profile and then you add the purge rules to it.  When making a change to one of the rules, be sure to keep the same rule name and group name to override the core value.

1. In System Management Center, in the left navigation pane, select System Settings and then select Profiles.
   You see the Service Profile tab displaying the global settings.

2. Select the EM Shell profile and from the right-click menu, select New.
