Full Scan task

The Full Scan task lets you run a virus scan on the files of all virtual machines within the task scope. The scope of a task depends on where the task is located within the hierarchy of administration groups of Kaspersky Security Center, and depends on the Kaspersky Security administration plug-in that you use to create the task.

You can create Full Scan tasks by using one of the Kaspersky Security administration plug-ins:

• Main administration plug-in – to scan virtual machines that are not part of a Cloud Director organization.
• Administration plug-in for tenants – to scan virtual machines that are part of a Cloud Director organization, that is to scan tenant virtual machines.

Full Scan task created using the main administration plug-in

If you are creating a Full Scan task using the Kaspersky Security main administration plug-in, the task scope is determined as follows:

• The task in the Managed devices folder of the main Administration Server of Kaspersky Security Center lets you scan all virtual machines within the entire protected infrastructure that are not part of a Cloud Director organization.
• The task in a group that contains a KSC cluster lets you scan all virtual machines within the protected infrastructure of this KSC cluster that are not part of a Cloud Director organization.
• The task in the Tasks folder configured for one or more SVMs lets you scan all virtual machines that are protected by the specified SVMs but that are not part of a Cloud Director organization.

  An SVM can scan only the virtual machines running on the same hypervisor where the SVM is deployed.

Full Scan task created using the administration plug-in for tenants

Creation of a Full Scan task for virtual machines of tenants is supported only on a virtual Administration Server of Kaspersky Security Center. You can create a Full Scan task using the Kaspersky Security administration plug-in for tenants in the Managed devices folder of the virtual Administration Server. The scope of this task includes all virtual machines within the Cloud Director organization that corresponds to this virtual Administration Server.
