cmit 2 Posted March 2, 2019 Posted March 2, 2019 (edited) 1. What's the best scheduler setting for daily nightly auto-scan for ESET File Security for: i.e. - domain controller - file server - IIS server - SQL server - server that has the ERA(v6) or ESMC(v7) running? Which kind of servers should run In-Depth scan and which should run Smart Scan? 2. What the best scheduler setting for auto-update? Would this example be a good fit? i.e. 1st profile: update directly from ESET's servers every 15min 2nd profile: update via proxy pointing to internal ERA/ESMC every 15min Recently everyday randomly on 10+ our of 150+ of our workstations (and servers) ESET sends email notification message below: "3/2/2019 13:55:59 PM - During execution of Update on the computer xxx, the following event occurred: File not found on server." I don't think the cause of issue is related to my auto-update too frequent because this issue is happening to many other ESET customers. Edited March 2, 2019 by cmit more info
Administrators Marcos 5,742 Posted March 3, 2019 Administrators Posted March 3, 2019 I would say that running a full disk scan on a daily basis is too much if all protection features are enabled. Files are scanned: - during download - on acces nd execution - saving to a disk - by the startup scan run after users log on and after each module update (memory + autorun locations + UEFI + WMI). Then there is also the Idle-state scan. It should be enough to run a full disk scan once a month or once a week at maximum.

What about scheduled nightly Smart Scan (i.e. 1am) when workstations not in-use? May I have recommendation about my 2nd question on scheduling auto-update? Thanks.
ESET Staff MichalJ 434 Posted March 6, 2019 ESET Staff Posted March 6, 2019 With regards to the updates, I would keep it in the "default settings", meaning the endpoint client tries to download module updates every hour. That should be sufficient, as updates are actually released approx. 6 times a day.

Could you show me the default settings again?
ESET Staff MichalJ 434 Posted March 11, 2019 ESET Staff Posted March 11, 2019 Just open the scheduler (navigate to "tools" / "scheduler" when creating a new policy in ESMC).
