3. Configure the schedule.
a. If you select Minute(s) or Hour(s), you have the option to Update client
configurations only once per day. If you do not select this option, the
OfficeScan client retrieves both the updated components and any updated
configuration files available on the server at the interval specified. If you select
this option, OfficeScan updates only the components at the interval specified,
and the configuration files once per day.
Tip: Trend Micro often updates components; however, OfficeScan
configuration settings probably change less frequently. Updating the
configuration files with the components requires more bandwidth and
increases the time OfficeScan needs to complete the update. For this
reason, Trend Micro recommends updating client configurations only once
per day.
b. If you select Daily or Weekly, specify the time of the update and the time
period the OfficeScan server will notify clients to update components. For
example, if the start time is 12pm and the time period is 2 hours, OfficeScan
randomly notifies all online clients to update components from 12pm until
2pm. This setting prevents all online clients from simultaneously connecting to
the server at the specified start time, significantly reducing the amount of
traffic directed to the server.
4. Click Save.
Offline clients will not be notified. Offline clients that become online after the time
period expires can still update components if you selected Let clients initiate
component when they restart. under Event-triggered Update. Otherwise, they
update components on the next schedule or if you initiate manual update.
