Scan_Now

Scan Now

Scan Now is initiated remotely by an OfficeScan administrator through the Web console and can be targeted to one or several client computers.

Configure and apply Scan Now settings to one or several clients and domains, or to all clients that the server manages.

To configure Scan Now settings:

• Networked Computers > Client Management > Settings > Scan Now Settings

1. On the Target tab, select the check boxes to enable scanning for virus/malware and spyware/grayware. If you disable virus/malware scanning, spyware/grayware scanning also becomes disabled.

2. Configure the following scan criteria:

• Files to Scan

• Scan Settings

• CPU Usage

3. Specify Scan Exclusions.

4. Click the Action tab to configure the Scan Actions OfficeScan performs on detected security risks.

5. If you selected domain(s) or client(s) on the client tree, click Save to apply settings to the domain(s) or client(s). If you selected the root icon, choose from the following options:

• Apply to All Clients: Applies settings to all existing clients and to any new client added to an existing/future domain. Future domains are domains not yet created at the time you configure the settings.

• Apply to Future Domains Only: Applies settings only to clients added to future domains. This option will not apply settings to new clients added to an existing domain.
