Following are the steps that need to be followed for updating AV defs via an Intelligent Updater file.
 

• Please make sure ScanEngine service is in "running" state
• Execute the script "setup-iu"
• Run the Intelligent Updater file

To execute the setup-iu script on Linux or Solaris

• At the bash prompt, type:
  <INSTALL_DIR>/bin/definitions/AntiVirus/setup-iu.sh enable

....where <INSTALL_DIR> is the installation location of the Scan Engine folder.


To execute the setup-iu script on Windows

• At the command prompt, type:
  <INSTALL_DIR>\Definitions\AntiVirus\setup-iu.bat enable

....where <INSTALL_DIR> is the installation location of the Scan Engine folder.



Run the Intelligent Updater file on Windows

1. In a browser, navigate to ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/norton_antivirus
2. If Scan Engine does not reside on a machine with Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition (SAVCE) or Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP), download and execute the file that ends in -x86.exe

(You do not need to manually restart the SE service. )


Run the Intelligent Updater file on Linux or Solaris

1. In a browser, navigate to ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/norton_antivirus
2. Download the file that ends in -unix.sh.
   
   Note: Do not download the "-unix64.sh" because the Scan Engine is a 32 bit App.
   
   
3. Use chmod to change permissions for the downloaded file to 755
4. At the CLI, type:
   ./<filename>
   
   ...where <filename> is the name of the file you downloaded.

( You will want to restart the Scan Engine service. )

./setup-iu.sh enable

or

./setup-iu.sh disable
