Event Notifications Parent topic

You can configure IMSVA to send an email or SNMP notification to you or specific users upon the occurrence of the following categories of events:
  • System Status: Informs you when certain IMSVA performances fall below the desired level. For example, when a scanner service stops working, or when the number of messages in the delivery queue exceeds the desired quantity.
  • Scheduled Update Event: Alerts you when IMSVA is able or unable to perform a scheduled update of the scan engine or pattern files from the update source onto the admin database.
  • Scanner Update Result: Alerts you when IMSVA is unable to update the engine or pattern files on any scanner.
  • Deep Discovery Advisor Settings: Alerts you when Deep Discovery Advisor analysis is incomplete or invalid

Note
Component update is a two-step process:
  1. At the scheduled time, the IMSVA admin database will first check the update source for new engine or pattern files.
  2. IMSVA scanners will then check the admin database at regular intervals for updated components. The default interval is three minutes.
