Installing Symantec Protection for SharePoint Servers

Symantec Protection for SharePoint Servers comprises two components:

1.  Symantec Scan Engine
2.  Symantec Protection for SharePoint console

Based on the SharePoint farm environment and SharePoint version used, install
the Symantec Protection for SharePoint console on all servers in the farm or only
on the Application server.

During installation, Symantec Protection for SharePoint Servers installs both
components together or separately based on the installation option that you
choose.

On a Windows platform, the software installer displays the following options:

Install both Symantec Scan Engine and the Symantec Protection for SharePoint console.

Install Symantec Protection 6.0 for SharePoint Servers (Full Install)

Install Symantec Scan Engine only.

Install the administrative console for Symantec Protection for SharePoint Servers

Install only the Symantec Protection for SharePoint console
