./kavdaemon [switch1] [switch2] [...] [switchN] [path]
where
[switch…]
is the optional command line switch of the Daemon
program;
[path]
is the optional xBSD path that defines the location to be
checked.
The meaning of
path
in the Daemon command line differs from that
of the Scanner program. For the scanner this setting defines the lo-
cation to be checked for viruses, but for Daemon it assigns the
path
value to the list of locations enabled to be checked (i.e. to the
Object
parameter of the profile). The objects to be checked are defined by
the switch
-o
in the command line (see
below).
The list of available switches includes those described for Scanner (see
Appendix B), except for the switches
-D
and
-@!
. Besides, there are several
command line switches that are specific to the daemon process:
-q
terminates the performance right after the check and disinfecting is
completed without starting the daemon process. This switch is used
only if the daemon process is not started yet.
-k
kills the parent daemon process. This switch is not recommended.
-ka
kills all daemon processes running (the parent process as well as the
child processes).
-v
displays the version number.
