System Center Endpoint Protection Full Scans?

[sothpaw]

Hey Everyone,

 

We currently have SCEP running now for about six months without any issues. We have SCEP setup to perform a quick scans at 2 AM in the morning. What we have noticed the SCEP full scans. The full scans have been running on a few client machines during business hours, and management is asking questions as to why SCEP is running during that time instead of running during the night. I've look all over within the CM SP1 console, and I cannot find anything set to perform full scans during business hours. I found all the settings that we have configured the Quick Scans at 2 AM.

 

Is there any documentation out there that explains as to when a SCEP full scans is supposed to happen?

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advance,

Sounds like you have a scan policy set if a client machine misses a scheduled scan to scan the next time the machine is on or force it as soon as possible. I think the setting was something like "If you miss 2 consecutive scans to force a scan". you may want to look at that property.

 

 

Edit the actual setting is called " Force a scan of the selected scan type if client computer is offline during two or more scheduled scans."
