Scan Job Configuration and Scheduling
Chapter 9

Scan Job Configuration and Scheduling
You can run scan jobs on demand or you can configure scan jobs to run periodically.
This section outlines the process of configuring and running manual and scheduled
scans. For detailed descriptions of all scanning options, see the CA
e
Trust Antivirus
online help.
Note
You may not want to include Snapshot shares (see “Snapshot Management
and Usage” on page 96) as part of your virus scan. Because access to an archived
version of the file system provided by a snapshot share is read-only, you cannot
treat or move any infected file; you would have to delete the entire snapshot to
effect a cure. A more useful approach is to always scan your file system for viruses
before running a snapshot. Adjust your antivirus scan schedule to synchronize with
your snapshot schedule so that any infected files are cured or removed before the
snapshot is scheduled to fire.
Defining Scan Jobs
This section provides an overview of the major choices available in configuring scan
jobs. Access these options by selecting
Local Scanner Options
from the Scanner
Menu.
Choosing an Infection Treatment (Scan Tab)
You can instruct the software to perform one of the following file actions when an
infected file is found:
File Actions
Description
Report Only
(Default) Reports when an infection is found.
Delete File
Deletes an infected file.
Rename File
Renames an infected file with an AVB extension. Infected files with the
same name are given incremental extensions (e.g., FILE.0.AVB,
FILE.1.AVB, and so on). After a file is renamed with an AVB-type of
extension, it is not scanned subsequently.
Move File
Moves an infected file from its current directory to the Move directory for
quarantine.
Cure File
Attempts to cure an infected file automatically. Choosing this setting
enables the
File Options
button. Click this button to display the Cure
Action Options and specify how the Cure File option performs.
Note
The
System Cure
option is not available on Snap Servers.
