Note
If this option is enabled and you have deleted all entries from the list with file
extensions, this is indicated with the text "No file extensions" under the button
File extensions.
File extensions
With the aid of this button, a dialog box is opened in which all file extensions are
displayed that are scanned in "Use file extension list" mode. Default entries are set
for the extensions, but entries can be added or deleted.
Note
Please note that the default list may vary from version to version.
Additional settings
Scan boot sectors of selected drives
If this option is enabled, the System Scanner scans the boot sectors of the drives
selected for the system scan. This option is enabled as the default setting.
Scan master boot sectors
If this option is enabled, the System Scanner scans the master boot sectors of the
hard disk(s) used in the system.
Ignore offline files
If this option is enabled, the direct scan ignores so-called offline files completely during
a scan. This means that these files are not scanned for viruses and unwanted
programs. Offline files are files that were physically moved by a so-called Hierarchical
Storage Management System (HSMS) from the hard disk onto a tape, for example.
This option is enabled as the default setting.
Optimized scan
When the option is enabled, the processor capacity is optimally utilized during a
System Scanner scan. For performance reasons, an optimized scan is only logged on
standard level.
Note
This option is only available on multi-processor systems, but is always
displayed in the configuration and can be enabled: If the managed server does
not have more than one processor, the System Scanner option is not used.
