The Quick Scan Schedule defines the date and time that the Quick Scan runs on managed devices that have the Antimalware Enforcement Policy applied with the Quick Scan option enabled. Configuration options include the following:
This schedule lets you specify the days during the week that you want the scan to run. The scan is run on these same days each week.
Select Days of the Week, then fill in the following fields:
Sun ... Sat: Specifies the days of the week you want to run the scan.
Start Time: Specifies the time you want to run the scan.
Process immediately if device unable to execute on schedule: A scan is considered past due if it is not executed on the configured schedule for some reason.
Use Coordinated Universal Time: The Start Time is converted to Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). Select this option to indicate that the Start Time you entered is already in Coordinated Universal Time and should not be converted. For example, suppose you are in the Eastern time zone. If you enter 10:00 a.m. and select this option, the Start Time is scheduled for 10:00 UTC. If you don’t select this option, the Start Time is scheduled for 14:00 UTC because Eastern time is UTC - 4 hours.
Start at a Random Time between Start Time and End Time: Starts the scan at a randomly selected time between the time you specify in the Start Time and End Time fields. You can use this option to avoid possible network overload from concurrently scheduled scans.
Restrict Schedule Execution to the Following Date Range: Limits running the scan to the time period specified by the starting and ending dates.
This schedule lets you specify one or more days during the month to run the scan.
Select Monthly, then fill in the following fields:
Day of the Month: Specifies the day of the month to run the scan. Valid entries are 1 through 31. If you specify 29, 30, or 31 and a month does not have those days, the scan is not run that month.
Last Day of the Month: Runs the scan on the last day of the month, regardless of its date (28, 30, or 31).
First Sunday: Specifies a specific day of a week. For example, the first Monday or the third Tuesday. Click to add multiple days.
Start Time: Specifies the time you want to run the scan.
Process Immediately if Device Unable to Execute on Schedule: Any scan is considered past due if it is not executed on the configured schedule for some reason.
Use Coordinated Universal Time: The Start Time is converted to Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). Select this option to indicate that the Start Time you entered is already in Coordinated Universal Time and should not be converted. For example, suppose you are in the Eastern time zone. If you enter 10:00 a.m. and select this option, the Start Time is scheduled for 10:00 UTC. If you don’t select this option, the Start Time is scheduled for 14:00 UTC because Eastern time is UTC - 4 hours.
Start at a Random Time between Start Time and End Time: Starts the scan at a randomly selected time between the time you specify in the Start Time and End Time boxes. You can use this option to avoid possible network overload from concurrently scheduled events.
Restrict Schedule Execution to the Following Date Range: Limits running of the scan to the time period specified by the starting and ending dates.
This schedule lets you specify an interval between days to run the scan. For example, you can run the scan every 14 days.
Select Fixed Interval, then fill in the following fields:
Months, Weeks, Days, Hours, Minutes: Specifies the interval between times when the scan is run. You can use any combination of months, weeks, days, hours, and minutes. For example, both 7 days, 8 hours and 1 week, 8 hours provide the same schedule.
Start Date: Specifies the initial start date for the interval.
Start Time: Specifies the initial start time for the interval.
Process Immediately if Device Unable to Execute on Schedule: A scan is considered past due if it is not executed on the configured schedule for some reason. If you select this option:
Use Coordinated Universal Time: The Start Time is converted to Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). Select this option to indicate that the Start Time you entered is already in Coordinated Universal Time and should not be converted. For example, suppose you are in the Eastern time zone. If you enter 10:00 a.m. and select this option, the Start Time is scheduled for 10:00 UTC. If you don’t select this option, the Start Time is scheduled for 14:00 UTC because Eastern time is UTC - 4 hours.
Restrict Schedule Execution to the Following Date Range: Limits running of the scan to the time period specified by the start date, end date, and end time.
If the device is not on at the scheduled time, attempts to use Wake-on-LAN technology to power on the device. The device must support Wake-on-LAN.
