Creating Anti-virus Domains
Choosing your anti-virus software
Anti-virus software (the scan engine) is updated approximately every six
months. The virus-detection database is updated approximately every six
weeks. Because hundreds of new viruses appear each month, frequent
updating is necessary to ensure that the anti-virus software can detect them
all. The Repository can store different versions of the anti-virus software
components. When you add newer versions, you need to select which version
to use on machines within your anti-virus domains.
Follow these steps to choose your anti-virus software for distribution:
1. In the anti-virus domain view, right-click Anti-Virus Domain(s) , an
anti-virus domain, a
Members
group, or an individual
machine, and choose Add/Remove Components .
If you choose Anti-Virus Domain(s) , the Global Components dialog box
appears ( Figure 3-14 ). Otherwise, a similar Components for ... dialog box
appears, with a name corresponding to your selection.

2. Double-click the anti-virus software that you want to use in all anti-virus
domains.
The name of the software you selected moves from the
Available
list to
the Selected list.
3. Click OK .
Every anti-virus domain will now use all and only the anti-virus
software shown in the
Selected list for distribution. However, machines
that you have individually set to distribute different anti-virus software
versions remain unchanged. Also, the Update Agent will not attempt to
install the same software to machines that already have it.
