Using VirusScan Utilities This tells each VirusScan component to send an alert event to the Alert Manager client utility each time it detects a virus or malicious object. The client utility, in turn, passes the alert message to the Alert Manager server you designate. If you do not set your software to generate alert messages in the first place, the client utility will have nothing to pass to the Alert Manager server for distribution. To start and configure the Alert Manager utility, follow these steps: 1. Click Start in the Windows taskbar, point to Programs, then to Network Associates. Next, choose VirusScan Alerting Configuration. The Alert Manager Client Configuration page appears (Figure 9-3). 2 Figure 9-3. Alert Manager Client Configuration dialog box 2. Verify that the Disable Alerting checkbox is clear. This activates the remaining options in this dialog box. Select this checkbox only if you want the Alert Manager Client Configuration utility not to pass alert messages from your anti-virus software to the Alert Manager server or to your Desktop Management Interface (DMI) administrative software. By default, this checkbox is clear. McAfee recommends that you leave it clear so that the client sends alert messages out. NOTE: If you use McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator software in your network environment, VirusScan software will still send alert messages to the ePolicy Orchestrator reporting component whether you activate or disable alerting here.
