Provide a filter for ACS: export configuration.

You may want to exclude development and test partitions when distributing the ACS configuration to 'the floor'.

    Thank you for submitting your Idea to enhance IBM i Access Client Solutions (ACS). To separate development and test partitions from others, we suggest you have multiple installations of ACS with different configuration locations. This can be easily accomplished by setting the property com.ibm.iaccess.AcsBaseDirectory in the AcsConfig.properties file. You could also have just one installation of ACS with multiple AcsConfig.properties files that you switch between. We have decided to not implement this Idea at this time.
