Manual Scan

Manual Scan is an on-demand scan and starts immediately after a user runs the scan on the client console. The time it takes to complete scanning depends on the number of files to scan and the client computer's hardware resources.

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

To configure Manual Scan settings:

• Networked Computers > Client Management

1. In the client tree, click the root domain icon to include all clients or select specific domains or clients.

2. Click Settings > Scan Settings > Manual Scan Settings.

3. On the Target tab, configure the following:

   Manual Scan Criteria

   Criteria	Reference
   Files to scan	Files to Scan
   Scan settings	Scan Settings
   CPU usage	CPU Usage
   Scan exclusions	Scan Exclusions

4. Click the Action tab and then configure the following:

   Manual Scan Actions

   Action	Reference

5. If you selected domain(s) or client(s) in the client tree, click Save. If you clicked the root domain 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 configured the settings.
