Product updates

Download and automatically install product updates

When this option is enabled, you can define a time for the product update. Specify a day and time for the product update. The product update will take place at this time, provided there are product updates available. Updates to the virus definition file and search engine are carried out independently of this setting. The conditions for this option are: complete configuration of the update and an open connection to a download server. Before a product update is carried out, you will receive an alert on the AntiVir Server Console used to administer the server to be protected.

Notification when new product updates are available

If this option is enabled, you will be notified by email when new product updates become available. Updates to the virus definition file and search engine are carried out independently of this setting. The conditions for this option are: complete configuration of the update and an open connection to a download server. You will be notified in the AntiVir Server Console and by email, if email notification has been configured.

Do not download product updates

If this option is enabled, no automatic product updates or notifications of available product updates by AntiVir Updater are carried out. Updates to the virus definition file and search engine are carried out independently of this setting. 

Important
An update of the virus definition file and of the search engine is carried out during every update process independent of the settings for the product update (see Updates).
