12. AVG DataCenter
The AVG DataCenter consists of a database, and
AVG Admin Server
. The
AVG
Admin Server
performs the role of a mediator between the AVG DataCenter and AVG
stations. The AVG Admin Console uses the AVG Admin Server to approach the AVG
DataCenter database, and to centrally define settings for stations and system
parameters. AVG stations approach the AVG Admin Server to read the setup
parameters; and to save their currently defined setting and scan results into the AVG
DataCenter.
The communication with stations is possible only if the
Remote Administration
component is properly installed on all stations, and connected to the AVG DataCenter.
The AVG DataCenter contains an implemented SQL database, or it can be attached to
a separate database server running either on the same or another computer within the
local network.
Attention:
Particular database engines can serve only a limited number of connected
computers. More information on this topic can be found in the
DataCenter role
chapter.
12.1. Maintenance
After a considerable period of AVG 9.0 Anti-Virus Business Edition use (i.e. AVG Admin
Console use), some inconsistencies or duplication in the AVG DataCenter may appear.
Such a situation puts increasing demands on the network load, and the maintenance
options are aggravated. For easy AVG DataCenter maintenance we have prepared
several scripts that will help you perform the frequently required maintenance
operations. During maintenance (when a script is active) the AVG DataCenter is
locked, and users cannot access it.
The maintenance scripts are available from the AVG Admin Console, menu
Tools/
Database Maintenance
.
12.2. Password protection
You can password protect access to the AVG Datacenter database and to the AVG
Admin Server.
·
Access to the AVG DataCenter database
The username and password for the database access is mandatory and it can be
changed within the
AVG Admin Server Settings
,
DataCenter
tab,
Database
Access
section.
Note:
The login details for the internal Firebird database are predefined and
cannot be changed.
