Settings in this folder control how often the CFSA runs scheduled scans of the local hard disk. They also determine which drives, folders and files are scanned, and which user policy is applied to scanned files. This folder also includes the File System Scan Configuration subfolder.
These settings determine which folders to scan. By default, the CFSA scans all local folders except the \Windows and \Program Files folders, but you can change these. For example, you can specify the main folders you want to scan the Included list, but then use the Excluded list to omit specific subfolders.
By default the Excluded Folders setting uses %SystemRoot% and %ProgramFiles% variables to exclude the \Windows and \Program Files folders.
These settings determine which files to scan within the included folders. By default, the Included setting lists all the common document types such as ‘*.doc’ and ‘*.ppt’. No files are excluded by default, but if required you can use the Excluded list to omit specific file types such as .mp3 or .log files.
Note: The Excluded list takes precedence if there is a conflict. For example, you can include all spreadsheets (‘*.xls’) but exclude specific files such as ‘Holiday_Form.xls’.
This setting determines which user policy gets applied to scanned files. It defaults to ‘DefaultClientFileUser’. A CA DataMinder user account with this name is created automatically when you install a CMS. This account is created specifically to apply policy to scanned files across all workstations. Or you can specify a different CA DataMinder user account (enter the user name, not the full name).
Set this to True to set up regular scans of all included files on the local machine. If you do enable full scans, settings in the File System Scan Configuration folder allow you to set the scan frequency.
