On-demand scans
On-demand scan is a method for scanning emails at convenient times or regular
intervals. You can schedule regular scan operations when the server activities are
comparatively low and when they do not interfere with your work.
GroupShield for Exchange enables you to create scheduled on-demand scans. You can
create multiple schedules, each running automatically at predetermined intervals or
times.
You may want to perform an on-demand scan for these reasons:
To check a specific file or files that have been uploaded or published.
To check if the documents within the Exchange Server are virus-free, possibly
following DAT update, in case new viruses can be detected.
If you have detected and cleaned a virus/spam/phish and want to check if your
computer is completely clean.
