Managing scan scopes from the command line

You can add or delete a scan scope with a specified Path for OAS, ODS, OAFIM, ODFIM, and AntiCryptor tasks from the command line.

To add a new scan scope, execute the following command:

kesl-control --set-settings <task ID>|<task name> --add-path <path>

A new [ScanScope.item_#] section will be added to the configuration file. The application scans the objects in the directory specified by the Path parameter.

If a [ScanScope.item_#] section already exists for the specified Path parameter, a duplicate section will not be added to the configuration file. If the UseScanArea setting is set to No its value will change to Yes after this command is executed and the objects located in this directory will be scanned.

To delete a scan scope, execute the following command:

kesl-control --set-settings <task ID>|<task name> --del-path <path>

The [ScanScope.item_#] section that contains the specified path will be deleted from the task configuration file. The application will not scan the objects in the directory specified by the Path parameter.
