Scheduled tasks for a computer can be set to execute based on the local time or GMT
(Greenwich Mean Time). However, ePolicy Orchestrator cannot monitor the progress
of a scheduled task. So we recommend you to view the log file in the server periodically
to check if the scheduled task was executed successfully.
AutoUpdate task
GroupShield 7.0 software can only provide full protection if you keep it up-to-date with
the latest anti-virus definitions (DATs), anti-spam rules, spam engine, and
virus-scanning engine. We recommend that you update DAT files daily and regularly
check the McAfee AVERT (Anti-Virus Emergency Response Team) website for new
DAT files. If you have multiple servers in the current domain, you can use one server
to download the latest DAT files, then configure the others to copy the files from that
server. Your servers can download files for a number of operating systems, regardless
of the operating systems that are in use.
