Scheduled Scanning Jobs

You can schedule scanning jobs for the FSA and CFSA.

FSA scanning jobs

You define a job schedule when you create a scanning job. After you click Finish in the final wizard screen, the Schedule Job dialog appears.

To modify the schedule for an existing scanning job, right-click a scanning job and choose Schedule.

In both cases, you must specify the FSA Run As user.

Important! When a scheduled scanning job is running, it is essential that nobody logs onto the target machine using the same account as the FSA Run As user!

CFSA scanning jobs

The Client File System Agent (CFSA) can scan local files and folders. You define the CFSA scan schedule in the local machine policy.

In the Client File System Agent, Data At Rest Protection, File System Scan Configuration policy folder you can specify the start day, start time, and frequency.
