Application-Server-Starter or Self-Starter
When configuring a virus scan server for ABAP systems, instead of an application-server-
starter (started by the application server) you can install a self-starter (for example,
started externally as a service under Microsoft Windows NT or a daemon under UNIX). In
the case of application-server-starters, all components are on the same host. On the other
hand, in the case of self-starters, the virus scan server and the SAP Web AS can be on
different hosts. This means that you can use a virus scan server that is only available for a
particular platform, even if the SAP Web AS is installed on a different platform.
Virus Scan Server on One or Two Hosts:
During operation, this division into application-server-starters and self-starters primarily
affects the Computing Center Management System (CCMS). You can monitor the virus
scanners in the CCMS (transaction RZ20), in the monitor Virus Scan Servers in the
monitor set SAP CCMS Monitors for Optional Components (for more details see SAP
Website). The following differences exist in this case:
• Application-Server-Starters:
In this case, the CCMS data collector automatically checks whether a configured virus
scan server is available. If this is not the case, the CCMS triggers an alert, and starts
the virus scan server again as an auto-reaction.
• Self-Starters:
In this case, although the processes are monitored by CCMS, they are not

line and you cannot therefore change it
here.
