The Event Management suite of functions includes Unicenter Virus Scan. This utility, available only on Windows, automatically scans the local drive daily at midnight. Parameters can be set to customize the type of scan, the drive to be scanned, and the actions to be taken upon virus detection.
CA NSM provides predefined message policies that automatically launch the Virus Scan utility at midnight. The installation procedure defines a Midnight* message record and associated action to run Virus Scan every day at midnight.
Note: To prevent Virus Scan from running automatically, simply delete the Midnight Virus Scan message record (Message ID: Midnight*) from the Message Records container. You can also delete the message record’s only associated message action from the Message Action Summary container. Deleting either record prevents the automatic execution of Virus Scan.
You can also run Virus Scan on demand by launching the inocmd32.exe command with your desired parameters. Parameters can be used to specify the type of scan performed and the action to be taken upon virus detection. Upon virus detection, Virus Scan sends messages to the CA NSM Console Log and the Event Log.
For more information on the inocmd32.exe command, including a list of valid parameters, see the online CA Reference.
