Installation manual

Let's say you have a server with 4 physical CPUs. For the best performance, according to formula above, you should

have 9 scan threads and 9 scan engines.

NOTE: Acceptable value is 1-20, so the maximum number of ThreatSense scan engines you can use is 20. The

change will be applied only after restart.

NOTE: We recommend that you set the number of scan threads equal to the number of ThreatSense scan engines

used. It will have no effect on performance if you use more scan threads than scan engines.

NOTE: If you are using ESET Mail Security on a Windows Server that acts as a Terminal Server and do not want the

ESET Mail Security GUI to start up every time a user logs in, see the Disable GUI on Terminal Server chapter for

specific steps to disable it.
