To enable automatic scheduled scans, select the Run a scheduled scanning check box. In this case, Dr.Web for Linux generates a schedule to periodically start certain type o scanning.
|
The scheduled scanning will start at the specified intervals by the notification agent or directly by the graphical interface for management if it is launched when the scanning starts. Scheduled scanning is not launched if Dr.Web for Linux operates under control of the centralized protection server, or if an active license is not available.
Scanning started according to the schedule as well as scanning on demand is configured with the settings specified on the Scanner tab. |
If scheduled scanning is enabled, you can configure the following parameters:
•Select the days of the week to start the scan (to do this, check the appropriate boxes).
•Set the time (hours and minutes) to start the scan.
•Select the scanning type (Express scan, Full scan, or Custom scan).
•If you select Custom scan, you should also specify the list of objects for scanning. For that purpose, click Objects to scan (number of objects for scanning is indicated within the brackets).
After that, select the necessary object in the appeared window which is similar to the file chooser for custom scanning on demand. You can add objects to the list either by clicking + or by dragging and dropping them from the file manager window.
To disable scheduled scanning, clear the Run a scheduled scanning check box. The respective task for the notification agent will be automatically removed.
