On-Demand Scan task
Administration Installation Guide
To apply this type of task, first create (clicking on the ‘Create ...’ button), or
choose an already existing (the ‘Select ...’ button) XML configuration file
with a specific scanner configuration (a standard, full configuration setup
will not suffice), which will be applied on remote client computers to start
antivirus scanning.
To setup the configuration file,
open the NOD32 Configuration
Editor – it is described in
more detail in the chapter
Configuration Editor (page
17). We recommend to focus
on the color distinction of the
small symbols in front of each
attribute – they show, whether
the attribute will be applied,
or whether the original setting
will not change. The selected
configuration can be viewed (the
‘View’ button), or changed (the
‘Edit’ button).
Use the ‘Create from Template...’
button to open an existing
scan configuration and use
it as a background for a new
configuration. The original
template will stay unchanged
even if you make some changes. In this mode
- viewing, editing, creating - only the scanner
settings are available to view.
In the upper section, choose a profile name
from the ‘Profile name’ pull-down menu. If this
profile is also found on the target workstation,
the above mentioned configuration will be
applied and will be added to the settings of
the existing local configuration for this profile.
ie: only items with a blue button will be recognised.
If you want to push a complete scanner configuration, regardless of
previous target workstation configurations, then press the key combination
CTRL + A or choose ‘Mark all’ from the menu ‘Edit’ during creation of the
configuration. This will mark all settings with a blue button and will therefore
all be picked up by the target workstations.
