Configuring virus scanning for a vFiler unit

Configuring virus scanning  Top

To specify the virus scanner for scanning files on a vFiler unit, complete the following steps.

Step

Action

1

Enter the following command to specify the virus scanner for scanning files on a vFiler unit:

vfiler run vfilertemplate vscan options use_host_scanners 
{ on | off } 

Set the use_host_scanners option to On to allow the vFiler unit to use the virus scanner registered with the hosting storage system. Doing so enables the hosting storage system and its vFiler units to share the virus scanner. However, the vFiler unit uses the virus scanner registered with the hosting storage system only when the virus scanner registered with the vFiler unit is unavailable.

Set the use_host_scanners option to Off if you do not want to allow the vFiler unit to use the virus scanner registered with the hosting storage system.

Note
The use_host_scanners option is applicable only to a vFiler unit you created. You cannot set it on vFiler0 or a storage system.

2

Enter the following command to enable or disable virus scanning:

vfiler run vfilertemplate vscan { on | off }
