- In case of bulk rescan, when you select one or more image with different or empty scanner host pool, you need to select a new scanner host pool.
Click Rescan image
From the Select a malware scanner host pool pop-up select a new scan host pool.
Note:
New scan host pool is applicable for all the selected images for this rescan.
Click Rescan to confirm.
Rescan (and resume) is not supported for scan results with scan type recovery.
- In case of rescan of failed/cancelled jobs, scanning would be triggered from the point of failure (resumed) instead of complete scan under the following conditions:
If the value of Date of scan is more then 48 hours, then the job would not be resumed and full scan would be initiated. This is to ensure that malware signatures used for scan does not differ significantly.
Supported for Standard/MS-Windows backup images which has large number of files (>500k) or more than one stream in case of DNAS.
Instant Access must have succeeded for the failed job.
Resume would identify first IA capable copy to scan, which can be different from the copy selected for the initial scan request.
Once resumed existing scan result would be moved from failed to pending and subsequently to in-progress state. And progress update could continue from the point of failure. In case of complete rescan new scan result would be displayed. If user needs to perform a complete scan, then it can be triggered using on demand scan options.
