Question for Doscan.exe /scanfile

  • 1.  Question for Doscan.exe /scanfile

    Posted Sep 29, 2013 01:08 AM
    Hi all,
     
    I am using the Doscan command to perform file scaning.
    the command is "doscan.exe /scanfile "c:\test.csv", but the log is below :
    2B081D0B022E,3,2,1,SZV-DEV-MDC-A18,lizhi,,,,,,,16777216,"Scan started on selected drives and folders and all extensions.",1380423801,,0,,,,,0,,,,,,,,,,,{0B1D0000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000},,,,ANALYTICS,00:50:56:BE:00:D0,11.0.6070.422,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,0,,,,,
    2B081D0B0312,2,2,1,SZV-DEV-MDC-A18,lizhi,,,,,,,16777216,"Scan Complete:  Risks: 0   Scanned: 515   Files/Folders/Drives Omitted: 0",1380423801,,0,0:0:515:0,,,,0,,,,,,,,,,,{0B1D0000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000},,,,ANALYTICS,00:50:56:BE:00:D0,11.0.6070.422,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,0,,,,,
     
    it seems the scan command has been executed finish, but these logs are not easy to understand. I scan 1 file "c:\test.csv", but the message is "Scan started on selected drives and folders and all extensions.", who can tell me the reason?

    thanks James007, but it can't help me.

    I see that 2 articles are posted in 2009, but now is 2013.

    BTW SEP version 11 has added some enhancements for "DoScan.exe", like doscan an specified file.

    I am affraid this is still a defect in 11.x where switches /scanfile /scandir are scanning both the requested file/path and additionally running quick scan as well - as result you see quite few hundred files scanned in total instead of the only one selected. The fix to this has been implemented in 12.1 and from this version on it is working as intended.
