ServerProtect Domains
ServerProtect domains are virtual groupings of Normal Servers used to simplify their
identification and management. You can create, rename, or delete domains according
to the needs of your network.
Normal Servers in a domain can only be assigned to one Information Server.
Information Servers, on the other hand, can manage several domains.
The most efficient way to manage your network’s protection is to group all servers in
relevant ServerProtect domains. For example, you may create a ServerProtect
domain called "NW" to manage NetWare Normal Servers more efficiently. See
Managing ServerProtect Domains on page 3-8.
WA RN I NG ! ServerProtect domains are not the same as Windows Server 2003/2000/NT
domains; they are simply a logical grouping of Normal Servers running

• Domain filter: Network administrators can set up a filter on an Information Server
to control what can be viewed from the domain browser tree on the Management
Console.
• Flexible domain management: Once logged on to the console, IT professionals
can add, rename or move/delete domains according to their preference.
Real-time Scan Versus On-demand Scan (Scan

ServerProtect features two powerful scan functions, Real-time Scan and Scan Now.

prevented from being copied to or from the server. See Using Real-time Scan on page
3-49.
Scan Now is a manual virus scan (that is, it occurs immediately after being invoked).
Use Scan Now to check a machine that you suspect may have been exposed to a
