● ALL-Executes the command for all Data Movers. ● -audit-Displays the status of the virus checker, such as how many files have been checked and the progress of those that are being checked. Start, stop, and restart CAVA About this task Use the EMC CAVA service to start, stop, pause, or resume services on the AV machine. Through the Services window, you can manage the EMC CAVA service if it fails to start on restart. You can access the EMC CAVA service from a Windows Server by using this procedure: Steps 1. From the Windows taskbar, click Start and select Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services. 2. Scroll to EMC CAVA. 3. Right-click EMC CAVA and click Start, and select either Stop, Pause, Resume, or Restart (whichever is appropriate) from the shortcut menu. Perform a full file system scan About this task For VNX systems, an administrator can perform a full scan of a file system by using the server_viruschk -fsscan command from the Control Station. To use this feature, the antivirus agent must be enabled and running. The administrator can query the state of the scan while it is running, and can stop the scan if necessary. A file system cannot be scanned if it is mounted with the option noscan. As the scan proceeds through the file system, it checks each file and triggers a scan request for each file. NOTE: If a file system is unmounted during a full file system scan with -fsscan, the scan stops, and there can be files that might not have been touched by the scan, which means there can still be infected files present. Upon remount, -fsscan must be restarted to scan any remaining files for infection. Although a single file system can have only one scan running on it at a time, you can scan multiple file systems simultaneously. However, scanning multiple file systems can cause the lowWaterMark and highWaterMark parameters to be reached, and an event log to be sent. In this case, you need to increase the lowWaterMark and highWaterMark parameter values. viruschecker.conf parameters provides more information about parameters. For VNX systems, use this command syntax to perform a full file system scan. Steps To start a scan on a file system, use this command syntax: $ server_viruschk -fsscan -create where: = name of the Data Mover = name of the file system Example: To start a scan on ufs1, type: $ server_viruschk server_2 -fsscan ufs1 -create Output: server_2 : done 38 Managing CAVA

Perform a full file system scan
About this task
For VNX systems, an administrator can perform a full scan of a file system by using the
server_viruschk -fsscan
command from the Control Station. To use this feature, the antivirus agent must be enabled and running. The administrator
can query the state of the scan while it is running, and can stop the scan if necessary. A file system cannot be scanned if it is
mounted with the option
noscan
. As the scan proceeds through the file system, it checks each file and triggers a scan request
for each file.
NOTE:
If a file system is unmounted during a full file system scan with
-fsscan
, the scan stops, and there can be files
that might not have been touched by the scan, which means there can still be infected files present. Upon remount,
-fsscan
must be restarted to scan any remaining files for infection.
Although a single file system can have only one scan running on it at a time, you can scan multiple file systems simultaneously.
However, scanning multiple file systems can cause the
lowWaterMark
and
highWaterMark
parameters to be reached, and
an event log to be sent. In this case, you need to increase the
lowWaterMark
and
highWaterMark
parameter values.
viruschecker.conf parameters
provides more information about parameters.
For VNX systems, use this command syntax to perform a full file system scan.
Steps
To start a scan on a file system, use this command syntax:
$ server_viruschk
<movername>
–fsscan
<fsname>
-create
where:
<movername>
= name of the Data Mover
<fsname>
= name of the file system
Example:
To start a scan on ufs1, type:
$ server_viruschk server_2 –fsscan ufs1 -create
Output:
server_2 : done
