Application management using Kaspersky Administration Kit
155
Tasks are launched in accordance with their established schedule. You can
temporarily remove certain tasks from the list of scheduled ones. Doing so will
not delete the tasks; instead, they will just be skipped.
In addition, you can control tasks manually in the task list window (see Figure 72)
and in the dialog for reviewing task settings (see Figure 73).
You can launch a task or resume it using the
Run/Stop
commands of the right-
click menu or their counterparts in the
Action
menu.
In order to run / stop a task manually,
Select the necessary task in the list (see Figure 72), open the right-click
menu and select the
Run/Stop
command or use identical items of the
Action
menu.
You can also initiate such operations from the
General
tab of the task properties
window (see Figure 73) using similar buttons.
15.3.2. Configuring task parameters
You can configure task parameters in the
Settings
tab of the
<Task name> task
properties
(see Figure 73) window. Every task type has its specific settings:
THE ANTI-VIRUS DATABASE UPDATE TASK
For an anti-virus database update task you can specify the source of updates,
settings for running the task under a different user account, and the source used
for updating. Available options include the updates' servers of Kaspersky Lab, an
HTTP or FTP server or a network directory (see details in section 5.3, page 41).
THE CONTENT FILTRATION DATABASE UPDATE TASK
For a content filtration database update task you will also have to specify the
source of updates. By default, the application will use the same source, which it
employs to retrieve updates to its anti-virus database. If you need to set up
updating from another source, disable the
Use the parameters of the anti-virus
database update task
checkbox.
THE LICENSE KEY INSTALLATION TASK
The settings window of the license key installation task contains information
about the license being added. If you wish to change the key file, click the
Browse
button and use the standard file selection dialog to specify the path to
the license key file.
