Limitations
Files with the following conditions are not scanned for viruses:
• Fully qualified file names longer than 256 characters
• Compressed or zipped files
• Open files that are locked
Suggestions
Running another anti-virus software, while running NetBackup with the virus
scanning option enabled:
• may slow down the NetBackup's virus scanning operation
• result in unnecessary alerts or unexpected warning message boxes
New viruses constantly appear, so it is important to keep the protection
signature files, or DAT files, up to date.
To download the latest DAT files:
1. Select VERITAS Web Page from the
Help
menu. Your browser will open to
the VERITAS website.
2. Follow the virus scanning link for instructions to download DAT files. The
following files will be available for download.
scan.dat
clean.dat
names.dat
3. Copy these files to the
install_path\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin
folder.
It is recommended to down load these files every 30 days.
