When the CGAgentInUDR is created, the field structure can be viewed from the UDR Internal Format Browser. For further information, see Categorized Grouping Related UDR Types in 9.10.1 Categorized Grouping Agent Overview.

In the Analysis_2 agent the CGAgentOutUDR will be processed in the way the agent is configured. In this example, one directory, one directory delimiter, and one file name are created. The CGAgentOutUDR information is thereafter put in amultiForwardingUDR and last routed to the Disk_2 agent.
