Managing application tasks using the command line

You can manage the application operation using tasks locally on the device (using the command line or configuration files), as well as using Administration Console or Kaspersky Security Center Web Console.

There are two types of tasks for working with the application:

Task ID is an identifier that the application assigns to the task at creation. IDs for user tasks are starting from 100. All tasks (including deleted tasks) have unique IDs. The application does not reuse the identifiers of the deleted tasks. The identifier of a new task is the next successive number to the identifier of the latest created task.

Task names are not case-sensitive.

The application's predefined tasks are listed in the table.
