Suggestions for scheduled scan dilemma?
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 1 comment
Our entire sales department use laptops and 2/3 are onsite most of the time. I have scheduled full scans to run once a week at 11 pm. Most of these scans are not happening until login the next day, which impacts performance significantly. If a laptop hibernates, I assume it won't wake up to scan. If the power settings turn off the hard disks, will it wake up? What are your suggestions for handling a situation like this? I want full scans to run weekly during non-business hours, so just disabling the "missed scan" retry isn't really an option because the scans will never run.
Suggestions?

It appears that right now a 3rd party product must be used:

I don't understand why WOL isn't included in SEP 11. I believe the earlier versions had a wake up to scan option.
