Enable the sizing tool About this task Enable the sizing tool on the primary sizing tool server and on all AV machines that you want to monitor: NOTE: If you enable the CAVA sizing tool and you want to enable local file system scanning on the AV machine, you should exclude the %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\wbem\ directory from directories to be scanned. Steps 1. Open the Windows Registry Editor by running regedit.exe. 2. Locate the Sizing entry in the left pane of the Registry Editor in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EMC\CEE\CAVA\Sizing directory. 3. Double-click the Sizing entry located in the right pane. The Edit DWORD Value dialog box for Sizing appears. 4. In the Value data field, type 1. Click OK. 5. (Optional) To control how often CAVA sends information to the sizing tool, double-click the SampleIntervalSecs entry. The Edit DWORD Value dialog box for SampleIntervalSecs appears. 6. (Optional) In the Value data field, type a number, in seconds, from 1 to 60. The default value is 10 seconds. Click OK. NOTE: Do not type any decimal value greater than 60. Any number greater than 60 is not supported in Visual Basic. 7. Close the Registry Editor. 8. Restart CAVA, as described in Start, stop, and restart CAVA. Manually compile the cava.mof file About this task Before starting the cavamon.exe utility, you must manually compile the Managed Object Format (MOF) file used by CEE CAVA. Steps 1. Locate the cava.mof file (found in the wbem directory of the local Windows installation). 2. From a command prompt, change (cd) to the directory above and run the mofcomp cava.mof command. Create the cavamon.dat file About this task If you run the sizing tool by running cavamon.exe (instead of using the script cavamon.vbs), you must create a cavamon.dat file. The cavamon.dat file contains the name or IP address of each AV machine that the sizing tool monitors. NOTE: The cavamon.vbs script takes its input from the CLI when the script is run. To create the cavamon.dat file: Steps 1. Create a text file, named cavamon.dat, in the Program Files\EMC\CEE directory. 2. Add a line for each AV machine that you want to monitor. The file must contain either the IP address or machine name of each AV machine. Monitoring operates properly with both types of entries in the file. To find the name for a Windows Server, click Start in the taskbar, and select Control Panel > Settings > System. On a Windows Server, click the Computer Name tab. NOTE: You must enable the CAVA sizing tool for each AV machine that is listed in the cavamon.dat file. 3. Save and close the file. Monitoring and Sizing the Antivirus Agent 53
