There are a number of ways global scan settings get applied to clients.
A particular scan setting can apply to all clients that the server manages or only to clients with certain scan privileges. For example, if you configure the postpone Scheduled Scan duration, only clients with the privilege to postpone Scheduled Scan will use the setting.
A particular scan setting can apply to all or only to a particular scan type. For example, on computers with both the OfficeScan server and client installed, you can exclude the OfficeScan server database from scanning. However, this setting applies only during Real-time Scan.
A particular scan setting can apply when scanning for either virus/malware or spyware/grayware, or both. For example, assessment mode only applies during spyware/grayware scanning.
To view global scan settings, see Scan Settings.
