noob question about quarantining files & cron

[bitterandstout 0]

Hi,  this  is likely to be a very simple problem to solve,  but I'm not seeing the answer in the docs.

We run esest_scan via cron on our linux servers.  What we'd like to do is to quarantine the threats rather than using the the clean mode options.  Can this be done? 

We're running Eset Security 4.5.9.

It is not clear to me what you would like to achieve. Do you want to keep detected files intact and create a copy of them in quarantine? Because I understand quarantining as moving detected files to quarantine which is done when cleaning threats.

Thanks for the quick response,  we'd prefer to move them to quarantine.

Thanks for the quick response,  we'd prefer to move them to quarantine and deal with restoring them *only* if they were not infected.
