licenses when deciding which HotFixes or Patches to install.
24. Issue: Script errors were seen when attempting to view the Japanese text, of the product description
window, in ePolicy Orchestrator 3.6.x. (Reference: 434203)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i NAP file has been updated to display the Japanese page in its proper
Unicode format (UTF-8).
25. Issue: The alert options for Network Appliance Filer and ICAP scanners were visible on the workstation
ePolicy Orchestrator policies. (Reference: 448361)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i NAP and extension have been updated to remove the alert options for alert
options for Network Appliance Filer and ICAP scanners, from the workstation policy, as those scanners are
server specific.
26. Issue: Some ePolicy Orchestrator operational events were not being generated for the VirusScan Modules*.
(Reference: 434423)
Resolution: The VirusScan Reports extension updates the current VirusScan Enterprise Event IDs (1329 –
1339) to be used for the VirusScan Modules*.
27. Issue: The on-demand scan log file validation checked for invalid file characters, including the "<" and ">"
characters. (Reference: 433776)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i extension validation for the path name of the on-demand scanner log file
now allows the "<" and ">" characters, which are needed for ePolicy Orchestrator macro variables.
28. Issue: The alert options for the VirusScan Modules* would not gray out when inheritance was enforced on
the parent policy. (Reference: 434231)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i NAP now properly enforces inheritance on the VirusScan Module alert
options.
29. Issue: Events generated by the VirusScan Enterprise for Offline Virtual Images 1.0 software were not being
generated in ePO reports. (Reference: 439832)
Resolution: The McAfee Announcer library changed properties of the events to support current reporting in
ePolicy Orchestrator 3.6.1.
30. Issue: Scanning events generated by VirusScan Enterprise 8.7i were not populating the Task Name with
proper information. (Reference: 453515)
Resolution: The McAfee Announcer library now populates the Task Name with the scanner that generated
the event.
31. Issue: The Access Protection includes and exclude fields permitted a limited number of characters in the
extension interface. (Reference: 457418/457419)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.7i extension updates the maximum limit of the include and exclude fields, to
be consistent with the point-product interface.
32. Issue: Scanner exclusions that were entered in ePolicy Orchestrator with a preceding blank space did not
show up correctly when they were enforced on the client. (Reference: 457420)
Resolution: The VirusScan 8.5i extension has been updated to strip any preceding blank spaces from
exclusions when they are entered in ePolicy Orchestrator.
33. Issue: VirusScan Enterprise added some new events that were not included in the default event filter, which
was provided by ePolicy Orchestrator. (Reference: 462927)
Resolution: The VirusScan Reports extension updates the current list to allow filtering of these events.
