I want to know the existing settings for Virus scan policy

Whether it send the scan request to the scan servers for every read and write or write alone.

 

Where shall i find these in 7-mode

 

I could find documents for Cluster mode, but i couldn't find the same for 7 mode.

 

Also please tell me -novscanread if this option can only be enabled for read-only files??

 

Or is it like if i enable this on a particular CIFS share, will it discard scanning for read requests and send scan requests only upon a write ?

How can I determine if the virus scan is only enabled for write requests.

 

Whether vscan is initiated for read operations / write operaions / on access where are these settings enabled.

 

 

 

thanks in advance

Hi,

 

cifs help shares: 

cifs shares -change <shareName>
{ -vscan | -novscan }
{ -vscanread | -novscanread }

 

It scans on read & write or on write only. 

Read-only markes on files are not considered.
