CHAPTER 6 45
6.2.2 Scheduled Scanning
You can use the scheduled scanning to scan files for viruses regularly at
predefined times.
To set the scanning schedule, follow these instructions:
1. Click Add a new task.
2. Set the date and time when the scheduled scan should start. For
example:
a. To perform the task each sunday at 4 am:
Minute: 0, Hour: 4, Day of the Month: *, Month: *, Day of the
Week: sun
b. To perform the task every day at 5:30 am:
Minute: 30, Hour: 5, Day of the Month: *, Month: *, Day of the
Week: *
3. Select directories that should be scanned at the scheduled time.
4. Click Save task to add the scheduled scanning task into the
schedule.
The scheduled scanning tasks use the Manual Scanning settings. For
more information, see “Manual Scanning”, 46.
Category.Platform.Family
where category, platform or family can be *
wildcard. For example, Client-IRC.*.* excludes
all riskware entries in the Client-IRC category.
If the product is installed on NFS server, the real-time scan does
not scan files automatically when a client accesses a file on the
server.
A scheduled scan can take several hours, so it is a good idea to
run it when the system is idle, for exampe during the night. Another
alternative is to configure several scheduled scan tasks, and to
scan only some directories at one time.
