You can run the following scans on devices using the Initiate Malware Scan quick task when the Antimalware Enforcement Policy is deployed to those devices.
Full Scan
Quick Scan
Custom Scan (Also requires Custom Scan Policy assignment)
Network Scan (Also requires Network Scan Policy assignment)
You cannot initiate another scan of the same type, Full or Quick, or of the same policy for a Custom Scan or Network Scan, until that scan completes or is stopped on the device in the Agent Status Console.
To run the Initiate Malware Scan quick task:
Select the device(s) in Devices > Workstations (and sub-folder if applicable), and select Initiate Malware Scan in the Quick Tasks pull-down menu.
Choose the type of scan to run and click OK. If you are running a Custom or Network scan, use the browse feature to locate and select the applicable policy before clicking OK.
NOTE:Custom Scan and Network Scan policies in the selection list are not filtered for device assignments when you select a policy for a Custom or Network scan, so you need to ensure the selected policy is assigned to the device.
Click Start in the Quick Task Status window to initiate the scan.
You can also initiate a Full or Quick Scan quick task from the Scan Schedule panel in the Antimalware page on a selected Device.
