Scheduled Scan Settings

Only clients set to run Scheduled Scan will use the following settings. Scheduled Scan can scan for virus/malware and spyware/grayware.

Remind Users of the Scheduled Scan __ Minutes Before it Runs

OfficeScan displays a notification message minutes before scanning runs to remind users of the scan schedule (date and time) and any Scheduled Scan privilege you grant them.

The notification message can be enabled/disabled by going to Networked Computers > Client Management > Settings > Privileges and Other Settings > Other Settings tab > Scheduled Scan Settings. If disabled, no reminder displays.

Postpone Scheduled Scan for Up to Hour(s) and Minute(s)

Only users with the "Postpone Scheduled Scan" privilege can perform the following actions:

Postpone Scheduled Scan before it runs and then specify the postpone duration.
If Scheduled Scan is in progress, users can stop scanning and restart it later. Users then specify the amount of time that should elapse before scanning restarts. When scanning restarts, all previously scanned files are scanned again.

The maximum postpone duration/elapsed time users can specify is 12 hours and 45 minutes, which you can reduce by specifying the number of hour(s) and/or minute(s) in the fields provided.

Automatically Stop Scheduled Scan When Scanning Lasts More Than Hour(s) and Minute(s)

OfficeScan stops scanning when the specified amount of time is exceeded and scanning is not yet complete. OfficeScan immediately notifies users of any security risk detected during scanning.

Skip Scheduled Scan When a Wireless Computer's Battery Life is Less Than __ % and its AC Adapter is Unplugged

OfficeScan immediately skips scanning when Scheduled Scan launches if it detects that a wireless computer's battery life is running low and its AC adapter is not connected to any power source. If battery life is low but the AC adapter is connected to a power source, scanning proceeds.

Resume a Missed Scheduled Scan

When Scheduled Scan did not launch because OfficeScan is not running on the day and time of Scheduled Scan, scanning is launched when OfficeScan is running at the exact time Scheduled Scan is set to run, regardless of the day.
