Managing the Components

You can view the list of components included in Dr.Web for UNIX Internet Gateways and manage their operation on the Main page.

The listed components of the product are divided into two groups: main components, which monitor threats, and service components, which are responsible for the overall correct operation of the product. The list of main components is displayed as a table in the upper part of the page (the list of components depends on the scope of supply for your product). For each component the following information is specified:

1.Name of the component. Click the name to open the settings page containing the settings for this component;

2.State of the component. The state of a component is indicated by a switch icon and by a note about the component’s current state. To start a component or to suspend its operation, you only need to click its switch. The possible states of the switch are:

If an error occurred in the operation of a component, instead of a note about the component’s state an error message is displayed. If you click the icon, a window will pop up with detailed information about the error that occurred and with recommendations for resolving this error.

3.Average load. The average numbers of files processed by the component per second within the last minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes respectively are specified (displayed as three numbers separated with forward slashes “/”).

4.Errors. The average numbers of errors encountered by the component per second within the last minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes respectively are specified (displayed as three numbers separated with forward slashes “/”).

To display a tooltip, place the cursor over the icon.

Below the table, which provides information about main components, you will find service components (such as the the scanning engine, the file scanning component, etc.) listed as a set of tiles. For each service component, its state and operational statistics are also displayed. To open the settings page of any of these components, click the name of a required component. As a rule, these components are started and stopped automatically when needed. If any of them may be started and stopped manually by the user, then, besides the name and the operational statistics, a switch for starting and stopping the component will be displayed on the tile of any such service component.

The bottom of the page displays whether the virus databases are up to date and license information. To force a virus database update, click Update. By clicking on the Renew button (or on the Activate button, depending on the current state of your license) you can renew or activate a license by uploading a valid key file that is appropriate for your product to the licensing server.
