Get-IcingaPartitionSpace returns USB devices

[bewshy]

Since the change to 'Get-IcingaWindowsInformation Win32_Volume -Filter ([string]::Format('DriveType = "{0}"', $DriveType));' USB devices are displayed which can include USB mass storage and licensing dongles. Request to allow filtering based on identifying as 'USB'.

Win32_DiskDrive.InterfaceType exposes this property.

Hello

Thank you for the issue. Does the exclude filter not apply in this case? You can already exclude certain mountpoints and drives.
I would not want to add a switch to fully exclude certain devices like USB devices, because I already can imagine that another issue will appear that licensing dongles are present and external hard drives and both should be considered,

The current exclude filter does not apply in this case. Yes, some environments might need to monitor USB storage, while others do not, and the noise it produces.

Can you please share the plugin output of an affected system? I don't see a reason on why the exclude filter should not apply here.
