automatically stopped or started. There is, however, a separate MTE class in CCMS
for these self-starters. You can assign an auto-reaction method to this MTE class
yourself to react to alerts. You can, for example, use the MTE class
CCMS_OnAlert_Email to send an e-mail or an SMS (see "Defining Automatic Alert
Notification" and "Forwarding Alerts to Alert Management (ALM)" on the SAP
website).

Virus Scan
With this use of the virus scan server, all required components are in the working
Server as an
directory of the SAP Web AS kernel on one host. The virus scan server is included in the
Application-
standard system. This means that you only have to ensure that the prerequisites for the
Server-Starter
operation of the application-server-starter are fulfilled:
•
You have installed the external anti-virus product and the associated virus scan
adapter in accordance with the instructions provided by the vendor.
•
The kernel directory contains the following components:
Installing a
The self-starter is available to you as an alternative if you cannot use the application-

•
The SAP Web AS kernel uses 64 bits and the external anti-virus product or the
Starter
external virus scan adapter (VSA) uses 32 bits.
•
The SAP Web AS and the external anti-virus product support different architectures.
For example, the SAP Web AS is installed on an AIX platform, but the anti-virus
product is only available for Microsoft Windows.
The self-starter starts the virus scan engine using a local XML configuration file. This
is usually the file vscan_rfc.xml, which contains the parameters required by the virus
scan adapter. The server must be started, or, if necessary, restarted using operating
system resources.
Copy the relevant variant of the virus scan server from the CD or the SAP Service
Marketplace to a start directory.
Create the configuration file using the commands listed in the table below, with
which you can later also change the existing configuration.
Example
The following call generates both the server and the VSA configuration for savapi.dll
(Windows) or libantivirvsa.so.<version> (UNIX):
To set new parameters to overwrite existing parameters, execute additional commands
and options in a new call. These are then set in the XML configuration.
