ScottWStewart 2 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I accidentally deleted the Module Updates Client Task. Can someone give me what would be the best settings to create a new one? Today just hasn't been my day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j-gray 35 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Here's the default client task. Task category is 'ESET Security Product': Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Staff MichalJ 434 Posted February 16, 2018 ESET Staff Share Posted February 16, 2018 @ScottWStewart Are you talking about a client task, or a scheduler entry? Is our product communicating a particular problem (like “installation out of date, no regular update configured”), or? For the second, I will either create a new policy with just scheduler set, or simply copy the default entry from the product (afaik, out of the box our client is set to attempt to update every hour).

ScottWStewart 2 Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) I found the Client Task Details: Modules Update - Summary Does this one keep the virus definitions and modules updated? I noticed that j-gray's Client Task Details: Module Update description for targets reads: Computers with outdated virus signature definition and mine says: Computers with outdated modules. I appreciate you guys help on this. I'm starting to learn more everyday about this application. Mostly through trial and error.

j-gray 35 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Will be interesting to hear from ESET on this. I do not have a 'Computers with outdated modules' dynamic group in my ERA console, though I am running the latest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Staff MartinK 378 Posted February 16, 2018 ESET Staff Share Posted February 16, 2018 4 hours ago, ScottWStewart said: Does this one keep the virus definitions and modules updated? Each product (security products, ERA components) are updating modules (including virus definitions) automatically. This task is supposed to be used in special case, where forcing of update is required - for example if change of network is detected or clearing cache is required. Regarding different name: it is just difference in version of initial ERA installation. If I recall correctly, name has been changed before ERA 6.5 release, so those that installed older ERA version will have this takes named differently. There is no difference in functionality itself. In last year, terminology "virus database" has been replaced with various alternatives in all ESET products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
