Grouping Tokens in an Inventory Rules Folder

In an inventory rules folder, you can use parentheses to group files together as a single entity. Note that groups have higher precedence than the AND and OR operators. You can use parentheses to clarify how a package rule with a mix of AND and OR operators will be evaluated.

FILE "CONFIG.SYS"
  AND
  (
    FILE "SYSTEM.INI"
    OR
    FILE "VER.DLL"
  )

The example package is detected if CONFIG.SYS is found in a directory and either SYSTEM.INI or VER.DLL is found in that same directory.

If you remove the parentheses, the package is detected if CONFIG.SYS and SYSTEM.INI are found in the same directory or if VER.DLL is found in a directory:

FILE "CONFIG.SYS"
  AND
  FILE "SYSTEM.INI"
  OR
  FILE "VER.DLL"
