Configuring Intensive Scanning Using ofcscan.ini Parent topic

OfficeScan triggers intensive scanning once the OfficeScan client computer detects an infection threshold. Administrators can configure the number of malware detections necessary to trigger the intensive scan by modifying the ofcscan.ini file.

Procedure

  1. Access <Server installation folder>\PCCSRV.
  2. Open the ofcscan.ini file using a text editor such as Notepad.
  3. Search for the string "IntensiveScanThreshold" and then type the new value next to it.
    The default value is 0 detections (disabled).
    Note
    Note
    Intensive scanning requires more system resources than normal on-demand scans. Ensure that the threshold configured is high enough to avoid unnecessary scanning.
  4. Save the file.
  5. Go to Networked Computers → Global Client Settings.
  6. Click Save.
    OfficeScan deploys the updated setting to all OfficeScan clients.
