See
Managing scans on client computers"
You can allow users to stop a scan entirely. You can also configure options for
how users pause or delay scans.
You can allow the user to perform the following scan actions:
Pause
When a user pauses a scan, the Scan Results dialog box remains open
and waits for the user to either continue or abort the scan. If the
computer is turned off, the paused scan does not continue.
Snooze
When a user snoozes a scheduled scan, the user has the option of
snoozing the scan for one hour or three hours. The number of snoozes
is configurable. When a scan snoozes, the Scan Results dialog box
closes; it reappears when the snooze period ends and the scan resumes.
Stop
When a user stops a scan, the scan usually stops immediately. If a
user stops a scan while the client software scans a compressed file,
the scan does not stop immediately. In this case, the scan stops as
soon as the compressed file has been scanned. A stopped scan does
not restart.
A paused scan automatically restarts after a specified time interval elapses.
You can click Help for more information about the options that are used in this
procedure.
