  • 1.  SAV for Linux

    Posted Oct 15, 2009 01:00 PM
    Hi everyone,

    I have some questions about SAVFL, these are:

    - Is it possible to run multiple scans (manual scans) at the same time in Linux???
    - Are resumable scan configurable also in SAVFL?
    - How often does the quarantine get purged??

    Regards,
    NTC

     Signature-based
    scanning
    Searches for residual virus signatures in infected files, and for the
    signatures of security risks in infected files and system
    information. This type of search is called a scan. Your company’s
    administrator can initiate signature-based or pattern-based scans
    systematically to check the files on your computer for viruses and
    security risks, such as adware or spyware. An administrator can
    run scans on demand or schedule them to run unattended.

    In the CD2 for SEP install you have SAVFL folder which contains docs folder which has documentation for SAV for Linux

    Hi,

    I asked because in windows  when you scheduled to run two scans at the same time, one starts and the other starts after the firts is finished. I dont know if SAVF has the capability to run both at the same time.

    Regads,

     Havent tested that but..I dont think it will work as one file ( RTVSCAN ) cannot do 2 things at the same time.
