ABAP-Specific Configuration
This Chapter describes the Virus Scan Interface configuration for ABAP systems. The
texts are taken from the SAP website.
6.1

Setting the Virus Scan Interface

In order to use the SAP Virus Scan Server, you have to observe the implementation guide
(IMG) files. Follow these steps:

Defining Scanner Groups

Defining Virus Scan Servers
Defining Virus Scan Profiles
Implementing a BAdI for Virus Scanners
6.1.1
Defining Scanner Groups
A scanner group combines multiple virus scanners of the same type to allow load
balancing. Since you select the virus scan server using the scanner group when
maintaining the virus scan profile, you must assign each virus scan server to a scanner
group.
Maintain a scanner group for each product class of virus scanners that are connected to
the system using the virus scan server. If you include your own virus scanners with the
BAdI VSCAN_INSTANCE, create a scanner group for each implementation of your own
scanner and identify these as BAdI implementations.
You can store configuration parameters for each scanner group. These are divided into
initialization parameters and scan parameters:
Initialization parameters are transferred to the virus scan server when it is started,
and are required to be able to start the virus scan server. If you use the Business Add-
In, these parameters for the method of creating the scan instance are transferred.
The parameters contain, for example, the path to the virus signatures.
Scan parameters are transferred for each scan process and control the behavior of the
individual request, such as yes/no for activating the scanning of macros.
SAP does not supply any scanner groups.
Type the transaction number spro (upper-left field).
